• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK392 - Cost estimate(s) found for another costing variant ?

  The SAP error message CK392 indicates that there are cost estimates available for a material in a different costing variant than the one you are currently trying to use. This typically occurs during the cost estimate creation or when trying to display or change a cost estimate.
  
  Cause:
  
  Different Costing Variants: The error arises when you attempt to create or modify a cost estimate for a material, but there are existing cost estimates for that material under a different costing variant.
  Costing Variant Configuration: The costing variant you are using may not be set up to allow for the creation of cost estimates if there are already existing estimates under another variant.
  Material Master Settings: The material master may have settings that restrict the creation of new cost estimates if there are existing ones.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Cost Estimates: Use transaction CK13N (Display Cost Estimate) to check if there are existing cost estimates for the material
