How To Fix CK723 - Costing of cycle & does not converge

CK723 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CK - Product Costing Messages

• Message number: 723

• Message text: Costing of cycle & does not converge

What causes this issue?

Iterative costing of the materials in cycle &v1& does not converge at
all or does not converge within 500 iteration steps.
This error occurs when the quantity structure specifies that the output
of a given amount of material A requires the same or nearly the same
quantity of A as input (such as 1 kg or 0.995 kg of A to produce 1 kg of
A) in addition to other items (with a positive value).
&system_response&

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check the BOMs of the materials in cycle &v1&. You can display these
materials in the material overview of costing.

  Causes of CK723 Error
  
  
  Circular Dependencies: The costing cycle may have circular dependencies, where the costs of one material depend on another material that, in turn, depends on the first material.
  
  
  Incorrect Master Data: Issues with the master data of materials, such as incorrect cost components, missing cost estimates, or incorrect valuation classes.
  
  
  Costing Variants: The costing variant used may not be set up correctly, leading to issues in how costs are calculated.
  
  
  Missing or Incorrect Activity Types: If the activity types used in the costing run are not defined properly or are missing, it can
