  The SAP error message CO314 "Settlement not possible (goods not yet delivered)" typically occurs in the context of controlling and settlement processes, particularly when dealing with internal orders, production orders, or project systems. This error indicates that the system cannot settle costs because the associated goods or services have not yet been delivered or confirmed.
