• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FCO_AVC_CC011 - Cost center &1 references cost center &2, which isn't budget-carrying. ?

  The SAP error message FCO_AVC_CC011 indicates that there is an issue with budget availability control related to cost centers. Specifically, the error states that a cost center (identified as &1) references another cost center (identified as &2) that is not budget-carrying. This means that the referenced cost center does not have a budget assigned to it, which is necessary for certain financial transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Cost Center Configuration: The referenced cost center (cost center &2) is not set up to carry a budget. This can happen if the cost center is not activated for budget control or if it has been configured incorrectly.
  Hierarchy Issues: If the cost center is part of a hierarchy, the parent cost center may not be budget-carrying, which can affect its child cost centers.
  Budget Control Settings: The settings for budget control in the controlling area may not be configured to allow for budget carry-forward or may not be set up correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Cost Center Settings:
  
  Go to the cost center master data (transaction code KS01 or KS02) and verify that the cost center &2 is set up to carry a budget. Ensure that the "Budget Carrying" option is activated.
  
  
  
  Review Budget Control Configuration:
  
  Check the budget control settings in the controlling area (transaction code OKBB). Ensure that the settings allow for budget carry-forward and that the relevant cost centers are included in the budget control.
  
  
  
  Adjust Hierarchy Settings:
  
  If the cost center is part of a hierarchy, ensure that the parent cost center is also budget-carrying. You may need to adjust the settings for the parent cost center accordingly.
  
  
  
  Create or Adjust Budget:
  
  If the cost center &2 is not budget-carrying because it does not have a budget assigned, you may need to create a budget for it (transaction code BP for budget planning) or adjust the existing budget.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific configuration steps related to your organization's setup.
