  The SAP error message CJ622 indicates that costs have been calculated for a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) element, but there may be an issue with the data or configuration that is preventing further processing. This error typically arises in the context of project management and controlling within SAP, particularly when dealing with project-related costs.
  Cause:
  
  Cost Calculation Issues: The error may occur if there are inconsistencies or issues with the cost calculation for the specified WBS element. This could be due to missing or incorrect data in the project structure or cost planning.
  Status of WBS Element: The WBS element may be in a status that does not allow for further cost postings or calculations. For example, if the WBS element is locked or has been set to a status that prevents further changes.
  Missing Master Data: Required master data (like cost centers, internal orders, or activity types) may be missing or incorrectly configured.
  Budget Availability: If the WBS element has a budget and the costs exceed the available budget, this could trigger the error.
