• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK758 - Valuation in costing variant is not the same as operational valuation ?

  The SAP error message CK758 indicates a discrepancy between the valuation method defined in the costing variant and the operational valuation method used in the material master or other related settings. This error typically arises during the costing process, particularly when trying to create or update a cost estimate for a material.
  Cause:
  
  Different Valuation Methods: The costing variant you are using has a different valuation method than what is set in the material master or the operational settings.
  Configuration Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the configuration of the costing variant or the material valuation settings.
  Material Master Settings: The material master may be set to a different valuation type (e.g., moving average, standard price) than what the costing variant expects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Costing Variant Settings:
  
  Go to the configuration of the costing variant (Transaction code: OKKN).
  Ensure that the valuation method in the costing variant matches the operational valuation method used in the material master.

  Check the valuation class and valuation type to ensure they align with the costing variant settings.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If necessary, adjust the costing variant or the material master settings to ensure consistency.
  If the costing variant is set to a specific valuation method, ensure that all materials being costed under that variant are compatible with that method.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the valuation methods and costing variants.
  
  
  
  Testing:
