• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKAPP_WAO005 - Cost estimate for sales order/item &1/&2 not found ?

  The SAP error message CKAPP_WAO005 indicates that a cost estimate for a specific sales order item could not be found. This error typically arises in the context of cost accounting and sales order management within SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Cost Estimate: The primary reason for this error is that there is no cost estimate available for the specified sales order item. This could happen if the cost estimate has not been created or if it has been deleted.
  Incorrect Sales Order Item: The sales order item specified in the error message may not have been properly configured or may not exist in the system.
  Costing Variant Issues: There may be issues with the costing variant settings that prevent the system from finding the appropriate cost estimate.
  Data Consistency Issues: There could be inconsistencies in the master data or transactional data that lead to the inability to retrieve the cost estimate.
  
  Solution:
  
  Create a Cost Estimate: If a cost estimate does not exist for the sales order item, you will need to create one. This can be done through the transaction code CK11N (Create Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure) or CK40N (Create Cost Estimate for Sales Order).
  Check Sales Order Item: Verify that the sales order item number referenced in the error message is correct and exists in the system. You can do this by checking the sales order in transaction VA03 (Display Sales Order).
  Review Costing Variants: Ensure that the costing variant used for the sales order is correctly configured and that it is set up to allow for the creation of cost estimates.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the relevant master data (materials, BOMs, routing, etc.) to ensure that everything is set up correctly.
  Re-run Costing: If the cost estimate was previously created but is not found, try re-running the costing process for the sales order item to regenerate the cost estimate.
