• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_CFIN_ACC_VIEW035 - Operating concern &2 for CO area inconststent with &1 in CO-PA mapping ?

  The SAP error message FINS_CFIN_ACC_VIEW035 indicates that there is an inconsistency between the operating concern defined in the Controlling (CO) area and the operating concern defined in the CO-PA (Profitability Analysis) mapping. This typically occurs during the integration of Financial Accounting (FI) and Controlling (CO) modules, particularly in the context of Central Finance or when performing data migration.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Configuration: The operating concern assigned to the CO area does not match the operating concern assigned in the CO-PA mapping. This can happen if the configuration settings for the CO area and CO-PA are not aligned.
  Data Migration Issues: If you are migrating data from one system to another, inconsistencies can arise if the operating concerns are not correctly mapped.
  Changes in Configuration: If there have been recent changes to the operating concern settings in either the CO or CO-PA modules, this can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP and verify the operating concern assigned to the CO area.
  Ensure that the operating concern in the CO-PA mapping matches the one defined in the CO area.
  
  
  
  Adjust CO-PA Mapping:
  
  If the operating concern in the CO area is correct, you may need to adjust the CO-PA mapping to reflect the correct operating concern.
  Use transaction code KEI1 (for creating CO-PA mapping) or KEI2 (for changing CO-PA mapping) to review and update the mapping.
  
  
  
  Review Data Migration Process:
  
  If this error occurred during a data migration process, review the mapping and transformation rules to ensure that the operating concerns are correctly aligned.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to Central Finance or CO-PA for any specific guidelines or known issues regarding operating concerns.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, perform tests to ensure that the error is resolved and that the data flows correctly between the CO and CO-PA modules.
