• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_DMC_SIN539 - Costing indicator is &1, but costing is not required by control key &2 ?

  The SAP error message CNV_DMC_SIN539 indicates a mismatch between the costing indicator and the control key settings in the system. Specifically, it suggests that the costing indicator assigned to a particular operation or activity is set to a value that requires costing, but the control key associated with that operation or activity does not require costing.
  Cause:
  
  Costing Indicator Misconfiguration: The costing indicator assigned to the operation or activity is set to a value that implies costing should be performed.
  Control Key Settings: The control key associated with the operation or activity is configured in such a way that it does not require costing. This could be due to settings in the routing or work center that dictate whether costing should be performed.
  Data Migration Issues: If this error occurs during a data migration process (e.g., using the SAP Data Migration Cockpit), it may be due to incorrect mapping of costing indicators and control keys.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Control Key Settings: Check the configuration of the control key (transaction code OPL8) to ensure that it is set up to require costing if the costing indicator is set to a value that requires it.
  Adjust Costing Indicator: If the control key is correct and should not require costing, consider changing the costing indicator to a value that aligns with the control key settings.
  Update Routing/Work Center: If the issue is related to a specific routing or work center, review and update the relevant settings to ensure consistency between the costing indicator and control key.
  Data Migration Adjustments: If this error arises during a migration process, review the mapping of costing indicators and control keys in the migration tool to ensure they are correctly aligned.
