How To Fix CMM_MEV_APPL_SD009 - Accrual amount changed from &1 &2 to &3 &4 on reval. of related items

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CMM_MEV_APPL_SD - Period-end valuation: SD specific messages

• Message number: 009

• Message text: Accrual amount changed from &1 &2 to &3 &4 on reval. of related items

What causes this issue?

On the sales side, the period-end valuation is based on billing
documents. One billing document may consist of several valuation
results.
You have set one valuation result to <LS>Postable</> or <LS>Non-Postable
</>. You revaluate another valuation result that is related to a
different item in the same billing document.
Normally, only the pricing of the billing document item related to the
selected valuation result is updated. In very rare cases, the system may
detect that the current state of the orders and deliveries would result
in headers and/or items different from the current billing document. It
then cancels the existing billing document, creates one or several new
ones, and updates the links from the billing document items to the
valuation results.
In such a case, even the billing item related to the valuation result
that you have already set to <LS>Postable</> or <LS>Non-Postable</> is
completely rebuilt. The new calculation may result in an accrual amount
different from that which you had verified before.

System Response

The system attaches this message to the corresponding valuation results
and sets them to <LS>Not Started</>.

How to fix this error?

Verify the valuation results again and set them to <LS>Postable </>or
<LS> Non-Postable</>. The warning message then vanishes and you can
process the valuation results as usual.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
