• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20345_CHECK035 - Profit center &1 in controlling area &2 is assigned to all company codes ?

  The SAP error message CNV_20345_CHECK035 indicates that a specific profit center is assigned to all company codes within a controlling area. This situation can arise during data migration or when performing certain operations in SAP, particularly in the context of controlling (CO) and financial accounting (FI).
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the profit center in question is set up in such a way that it is linked to all company codes in the controlling area. This can lead to issues during data processing, as the system may expect profit centers to be assigned to specific company codes rather than universally across all of them.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Profit Center Assignments:
  
  Go to the transaction code KE52 (Change Profit Center) or KE51 (Create Profit Center) in SAP.
  Check the assignment of the profit center to the controlling area and the company codes.
  
  
  
  Modify Assignments:
  
  If the profit center is indeed assigned to all company codes and this is not the intended configuration, you may need to change the assignment.
  You can either:
  
  Remove the profit center from the universal assignment to all company codes.
  Assign the profit center to specific company codes as needed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration of profit centers aligns with your organizational structure and reporting requirements.
  Review the settings in the controlling area to ensure they are set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed guidance on profit center configuration and assignments.
