• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKMLAVR036 - In plant &1, &2 of &3 materials have already been cumulated ?

  The SAP error message CKMLAVR036 indicates that there is an issue with the material valuation in the context of the Material Ledger. Specifically, it means that the system has detected that certain materials have already been cumulated in the specified plant, which prevents further cumulation for those materials.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises in the following scenarios:
  
  Duplicate Cumulation: The materials in question have already been processed for cumulation in the Material Ledger, and the system does not allow for re-cumulation.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the Material Ledger settings that lead to this error.
  Timing Issues: The cumulation process may have been executed in a previous period, and the system is preventing further cumulation in the current period.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CKMLAVR036 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Cumulation Status:
  
  Verify if the materials listed in the error message have indeed been cumulated. You can do this by checking the Material Ledger documents for the specified plant and materials.
  
  
  
  Review Material Ledger Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for the Material Ledger is set up correctly. Check the settings in transaction code OMLR (Material Ledger Configuration) to ensure that cumulation is allowed for the materials in question.
  
  
  
  Reprocess Cumulation:
  
  If the cumulation was not completed successfully, you may need to reprocess the cumulation. Use transaction CKMLCP (Material Ledger: Periodic Processing) to initiate the cumulation process again.
  
  
  
  Check for Open Periods:
  
  Ensure that the periods for the materials are open for posting. If the period is closed, you may need to reopen it to allow for cumulation.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the Material Ledger and cumulation processes for any specific guidance or updates that may apply to your version of SAP.
