• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKMLW002 - No run found for actual costing for reporting periods ?

  The SAP error message CKMLW002 ("No run found for actual costing for reporting periods") typically occurs in the context of actual costing in the Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with Material Ledger (ML) and actual costing processes. This error indicates that the system cannot find a costing run for the specified reporting period, which is necessary for generating actual cost reports.
  Causes:
  
  
  No Costing Run Executed: The most common cause is that no actual costing run has been executed for the specified period. If the costing run has not been performed, there will be no data available for reporting.
  
  
  Incorrect Period Selection: The reporting period selected may not correspond to a period for which a costing run has been executed. This can happen if the user is trying to access a future period or a period that has not been processed.
  
  
  Data Not Posted: If the necessary transactions have not been posted to the Material Ledger for the period in question, the costing run will not have any data to process.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the Material Ledger or actual costing settings that prevent the costing run from being created or recognized.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Execute Actual Costing Run: Ensure that you have executed the actual costing run for the relevant period. This can typically be done through transaction code CKMLCP (Actual Costing/Material Ledger: Actual Costing Run).
  
  
  Check Period Settings: Verify that you are selecting the correct reporting period. Ensure that the period you are trying to report on has been closed and that the costing run has been executed for that period.
  
  
  Post Necessary Transactions: Make sure that all necessary transactions have been posted to the Material Ledger for the period in question. This includes goods movements, invoice postings, and any other relevant transactions.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the Material Ledger and actual costing. Ensure that the settings are correct and that the system is set up to perform actual costing as required.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on the specific configuration and processes related to actual costing and Material Ledger.
