• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COCO014 - No inactive version of control composite & exists ?

  The SAP error message COCO014 indicates that there is no inactive version of a control composite available in the system. This error typically arises in the context of controlling (CO) and can occur when trying to access or modify a control composite that does not have an inactive version.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Inactive Version: The primary cause of this error is that the control composite you are trying to work with does not have an inactive version. In SAP, control composites can have multiple versions, and at least one of them should be inactive for certain operations to proceed.
  Version Management Issues: There may be issues with version management settings or configurations that prevent the creation or maintenance of inactive versions.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or create inactive versions.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create an Inactive Version:
  
  Navigate to the transaction code where you manage control composites (e.g., transaction KKS1 for creating a control composite).
  Check if you can create an inactive version of the control composite. If not, you may need to create a new version and set it to inactive.
  
  
  
  Check Existing Versions:
  
  Use transaction KKS2 to display existing versions of the control composite. Ensure that there is at least one inactive version available.
  If there are no inactive versions, you may need to create one based on the active version.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings related to version management in controlling. Ensure that the settings allow for the creation of inactive versions.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to create or modify control composites. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to adjust the authorizations.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on managing control composites and versions.
