How To Fix GA182 - Statistical order & does not have an associated cost center for posting.

GA182 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 182

• Message text: Statistical order & does not have an associated cost center for posting.

What causes this issue?

You are using the statistical order &V1& as receiver in an assessment,
distribution, periodic reposting or indirect activity allocation.
However, no cost center to be posted automatically is specified in the
master record for this order.

System Response

The statistical order &V1& is excluded from further processing when you
execute this cycle since the actual account assignment on the cost
center is missing in addition to the statistical posting on the
statistical order.
When you maintain fixed receiver tracing factors in cycle maintenance,
the statistical order &V1& is first accepted - to make things easier -
so that the tracing factor values can be maintained without having to
leave the cycle. Afterwards, however, the cost center, which is also to
be posted, should be added so that this receiver is valid.
During the formal check in cycle maintenance, a warning message is
output prompting the user to add the cost center that is also to be
posted.

How to fix this error?

Enter a cost center also to be posted in the master record of order
&V1& so that the order can be accepted as valid receiver.
