• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKCC131 - Costs displayed are based on costing lot size ?

  The SAP error message CKCC131 indicates that the costs displayed in the system are based on the costing lot size. This message typically arises during the costing process in SAP, particularly when dealing with material valuation and cost estimates.
  Cause:
  The error message CKCC131 is triggered when the system is trying to display costs for a material, but the costs are calculated based on a specific costing lot size. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Costing Lot Size Configuration: The costing lot size may not be set correctly in the material master or in the costing variant.
  Costing Variant Settings: The costing variant may not be configured to handle the specific lot size or may not be aligned with the material's characteristics.
  Material Master Data: The material master data may not have the appropriate costing lot size defined, leading to discrepancies in cost calculations.
  Costing Run Issues: If a costing run was not executed properly or if there were changes in the material master after the last costing run, it could lead to this message.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CKCC131 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master (transaction code MM03) and verify the costing lot size in the Accounting view.
  Ensure that the costing lot size is appropriate for the material.
  
  
  
  Review Costing Variant:
  
  Check the costing variant settings (transaction code OKKN) to ensure that it is configured correctly to handle the costing lot size.
  Make sure that the costing variant is assigned to the appropriate valuation area.
  
  
  
  Perform Costing Run:
  
  If there have been changes to the material master or if the costing run has not been executed recently, perform a new costing run (transaction code CK40N).
  Ensure that the costing run is executed for the correct period and includes the relevant materials.
  
  
  
  Adjust Costing Lot Size:
  
  If necessary, adjust the costing lot size in the material master to align with the expected cost calculations.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to costing and material valuation for additional insights and best practices.
