• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20200_CHECK008 - Valuation level is plant ?

  The SAP error message CNV_20200_CHECK008 with the description "Valuation level is plant" typically occurs during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or similar tools. This error indicates that there is a mismatch or inconsistency in the valuation level settings for materials in the system.
  Cause:
  The error is primarily caused by the following reasons:
  
  
  Valuation Level Configuration: The valuation level in the material master data is set to "Plant," but the system is expecting a different valuation level (e.g., "Company Code"). This can happen if the configuration settings in the system do not align with the data being migrated.
  
  
  Data Inconsistency: The data being imported or converted may not conform to the expected structure or settings in the target system, leading to conflicts in how materials are valued.
  
  
  Missing or Incorrect Master Data: If the material master data does not have the necessary information for the plant valuation level, it can trigger this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CNV_20200_CHECK008 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Valuation Level Settings:
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP (Transaction SPRO).
  Navigate to Logistics > Material Management > Valuation and Account Assignment > Define Valuation Level.
  Ensure that the valuation level is set correctly according to your business requirements (either "Plant" or "Company Code").
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction MM03 to display the material master data.
  Check the valuation data for the materials involved in the migration. Ensure that the valuation level is consistent with the configuration.
  
  
  
  Adjust Migration Data:
  
  If you are using a migration tool, review the data being imported. Ensure that it aligns with the expected valuation level settings.
  Correct any discrepancies in the data before attempting the migration again.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation related to the migration process you are using. There may be specific guidelines or prerequisites that need to be followed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, perform a test migration with a smaller dataset to ensure that the error does not occur again.
  
  
  
  Seek Support:
  
  If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide more tailored assistance based on your specific system configuration and data.
