What causes this issue?

Similar to settlement, distribution of costs and payments is a typical

period for the previous period.
The following has to be considered:
All costs or payments distributed for the first time are posted to the
period specified by the user.
The distribution of costs and payments must take place at least once in
each period, usually at the beginning of a new period for the previous
period. In this case enter the last period.
Perform distribution of costs and payments in the current period for
the current period. If all of the values that are found for
redistribution are to be posted in the current period, enter the
current period on the initial screen.
