How To Fix KD302 - Cost center &, cost element &: Splitting is not possible

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KD - CO Settlement

• Message number: 302

• Message text: Cost center &, cost element &: Splitting is not possible

What causes this issue?

Cost element &V2& cannot be split for cost center &V1&, period(s) &V3&,
because:
the total of the activity type equivalence numbers is zero. Therefore,
there is no splitting base for this cost element.
the target costs for cost object hierarchies are zero. This means
there is no distribution basis for this cost element.

System Response

The values for cost element &V2& are not split. They cannot be taken
into account for further processing.

How to fix this error?

For cost centers:
Maintain the equivalence numbers for the activity types in cost center
&V1& so that total is not zero.
For cost object hierarchies:
Check the cost element group in target version 0. There must be target
costs in this cost element group, which the distribution can use to
split the actual costs.
