• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DPR_CALC015 - Cost/revenue rate &1, &2: inconsistent data record (fields PLVAR, OTYPE) ?

  The SAP error message DPR_CALC015 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the data related to cost/revenue rates in the Project System (PS) or the Project Management (PM) module. Specifically, the error points to a mismatch in the fields PLVAR (Planning Variant) and OTYPE (Object Type) for the specified cost/revenue rate.
  Cause:
  
  
  Inconsistent Data: The error typically arises when there are discrepancies in the planning data for a project. This could be due to:
  
  Incorrect or missing entries in the planning tables.
  Changes made to the planning variant or object type that are not reflected in the associated records.
  Data corruption or inconsistencies in the database.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: If the planning variant or object type has been incorrectly configured or if there are changes in the configuration that have not been properly updated in the related records.

  Review Configuration:
