• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKCC206 - No selection criteria for costing run or material master ?

  The SAP error message CKCC206 "No selection criteria for costing run or material master" typically occurs during the costing run process in the Controlling (CO) module, particularly when using the transaction CK40N (Costing Run) or similar transactions. This error indicates that the system cannot find any selection criteria to process the costing run or that the material master data is not properly set up.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Selection Criteria: The costing run may not have any selection criteria defined, which means the system does not know which materials to include in the costing run.
  Material Master Issues: The materials you are trying to cost may not have the necessary data in the material master, such as valuation class, costing variant, or other relevant fields.
  Costing Variant Configuration: The costing variant may not be properly configured to include the materials you are trying to cost.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the materials or perform the costing run.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Define Selection Criteria:
  
  Go to the costing run transaction (CK40N).
  Ensure that you have defined the selection criteria correctly. This includes specifying the appropriate plants, material types, and other relevant filters.
  Check if you have selected the correct costing variant.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction MM03 to view the material master data for the materials you are trying to cost.
  Ensure that the necessary fields are filled out, such as the valuation class and costing data.
  Make sure that the materials are marked for costing and have valid data for the costing variant you are using.
  
  
  
  Review Costing Variant Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the costing variant in transaction OKKN.
  Ensure that the costing variant is set up to include the materials you are trying to cost.
  
  
  
  User Authorizations:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the costing run and access the relevant materials.
  If needed, consult with your SAP security team to ensure proper roles and authorizations are assigned.
  
  
  
  Test with Different Criteria:
  
  If the issue persists, try running the costing with different selection criteria or for a different set of materials to see if the problem is specific to certain materials or criteria.
