• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK083 - No longer used ?

  The SAP error message CK083 ("No longer used") typically occurs in the context of the SAP Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with cost estimates or material master data. This message indicates that a particular cost estimate or material is no longer valid or has been marked for deletion.
  Cause:
  
  Cost Estimate Deletion: The cost estimate you are trying to access or use has been marked as "no longer used" in the system. This can happen if the cost estimate was deleted or if it has been replaced by a newer version.
  Material Master Data: The material you are trying to work with may have been flagged as inactive or deleted in the material master data.
  Versioning: If you are working with different versions of cost estimates, the version you are trying to access may not be active anymore.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Cost Estimates: Go to the cost estimate transaction (e.g., CK11N for creating a cost estimate) and verify if the cost estimate you are trying to use is still valid. If it has been deleted, you may need to create a new cost estimate.
  Material Master Status: Check the status of the material in the material master (transaction MM03). Ensure that the material is active and not marked for deletion.
  Recreate Cost Estimate: If the cost estimate is indeed no longer valid, you may need to recreate it using the appropriate transaction.
  Consult Documentation: Review any documentation or change logs to understand why the cost estimate or material was marked as no longer used.
  System Configuration: If this error is unexpected, consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to check if there are any configuration issues or if any recent changes might have affected the cost estimates.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CK11N (Create Cost Estimate), CK40N (Change Cost Estimate), and MM03 (Display Material).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify cost estimates and material master data.
  Training and Documentation: Consider reviewing SAP training materials or documentation related to cost accounting and material management for a better understanding of how cost estimates are managed in SAP.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in the Controlling module.
