How To Fix FCOM_PLANNING_CORE116 - Allocation factors of cost object &1 have different units of measure.

FCOM_PLANNING_CORE116 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FCOM_PLANNING_CORE - Messages for Package FCOM_PLANNING_CORE

• Message number: 116

• Message text: Allocation factors of cost object &1 have different units of measure.

What causes this issue?

For cost object &V1& of type &V2& (InfoObject &V3&), allocation factors
exist in different units of measure. Cost simulation uses the allocation
factors as the basis for determining a tariff for the cost object (for
example, cost center). The system can only determine one tariff for each
cost object. It is therefore essential that the data of a cost object
contain only allocation factors in the same unit of measure.

System Response

The system aborts processing of the planning function.

How to fix this error?

Correct the allocation factors that you entered and ensure that you only
enter allocation factors with the same unit of measure for a cost
object.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FCOM_PLANNING_CORE116 - Allocation factors of cost object &1 have different units of measure. ?

  The SAP error message FCOM_PLANNING_CORE116 indicates that there is a discrepancy in the units of measure for allocation factors associated with a cost object. This typically occurs during the planning or allocation processes in SAP, particularly in the context of controlling (CO) or financial planning.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when the allocation factors for a cost object are defined with different units of measure. For example, if one allocation factor is defined in "hours" and another in "units," SAP cannot process the allocation correctly because it requires consistency in the units of measure.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Allocation Factors: 
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., KP06 for cost center planning) and review the allocation factors for the cost object in question.
  Ensure that all allocation factors are using the same unit of measure.
  
  
  
  Adjust Units of Measure:
  
  If you find that the allocation factors are indeed using different units, you will
