How To Fix J1AI014 - Previous replacement prices are inconsistent for &1

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: J1AI - J1AI

• Message number: 014

• Message text: Previous replacement prices are inconsistent for &1

What causes this issue?

You calculate replacement cost for a material for which no market price
could be found or for which you configured that market prices are not to
be determined. Therefore the system applies an inflation index (for
domestically purchased materials) or an exchange rate (for imported
materials) on the previously calculated replacement cost.
Furthermore, you valuate materials on plant level. In Customizing for
the inflation method, you defined that the replacement costs of
materials are to be determined across multiple plants on company-code
level. The previously calculated replacement costs differ between the
plants.

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

If the different replacement costs are due to legacy data transfer,
correct the legacy data and repeat the data transfer. If only a few
materials are affected, you can manually correct the replacement cost as
follows:
Allow manual changes to replacement costs by selecting <LS>Man. RC
change</> in the Customizing activity <LS>Maintain Inflation Methods</>.
Change the material master data by choosing <LS>Inflation data</> on the
<LS>Accounting 2</> view of the material master.
Enter the correct value in the <LS>Repl. cost</> field on the right side
(in the block for the previous year or previous period) at the date
indicated in the <LS>Reval. date</> field.
