  • What causes this issue?

    You want to carry out a periodic reposting of activity-dependent costs
    (with sender activity type &V1&) to receiver objects that are not of
    category "cost center". For example, you may have defined orders as
    well as cost centers as receivers in the cycle/segment.

    System Response

    During periodic reposting of activity-dependent costs, the system can
    only accept receiver objects of category "cost center". Only in this
    case is an activity-dependent reposting advisable when keeping the same
    sender activity type.
    &NOTE&
    Activity-independent costs can, in principle, be reposted to all
    receiver objects selectable in the segment.
    Activity-dependent costs can only be reposted to cost centers when
    keeping the sender activity type, so long as planning has already been
    carried out for this cost center / activity type in fiscal year &v2&.
