• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKCC181 - A maximum of 1 costing type for std cost estimate permitted for seg. val. ?

  The SAP error message CKCC181 indicates that there is an issue with the costing type configuration for a standard cost estimate in the context of segment valuation. This error typically arises when the system detects that more than one costing type is being used for a particular segment valuation, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Costing Types: The primary cause of this error is that the system has detected multiple costing types assigned to the same segment valuation. In SAP, each segment valuation can only have one costing type for standard cost estimates.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the controlling area or the material master data that lead to this conflict.
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during the creation or modification of cost estimates can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Costing Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP (Transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to the relevant settings for Costing and ensure that only one costing type is assigned to the segment valuation in question.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Check the material master data for the materials involved. Ensure that the costing type is correctly assigned and that there are no inconsistencies.
  Use transaction code MM03 to view the material master and verify the costing data.
  
  
  
  Cost Estimate Review:
  
  Review the cost estimates that have been created. Use transaction CK11N (Create Standard Cost Estimate) or CK40N (Change Standard Cost Estimate) to check if there are multiple costing types assigned.
  If you find multiple costing types, you may need to delete or adjust the cost estimates to ensure compliance with the single costing type requirement.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed guidance on costing types and segment valuation.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, try to create or update the standard cost estimate again to see if the error persists.
