SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KE -

• Message number: 095

• Message text: Errors were found in the derivation structures

What causes this issue?

The derivation structures are inconsistent.

System Response

The operating concern was activated. However, errors may occur during
derivation of characteristic values.

How to fix this error?

Execute transaction KE05 and choose the function "Extras -> Regenerate".
The system should regenerate the programs and screens for all the
derivation structures. If errors occur again, see the long texts of the
error messages, and take any actions described there. If you cannot

This error can arise due to various reasons, including incorrect configuration, missing data, or issues with the derivation rules.
  Causes of KE095 Error
  
  
  Incorrect Derivation Structures: The derivation structures may not be correctly defined or configured in the system. This can include missing or incorrect derivation rules.
  
  
  Missing Characteristics: If the characteristics required for the derivation are not available or not properly assigned, the system will throw this error.
  
  
  Inconsistent Data: Inconsistencies in the data being processed can lead to errors in the derivation process.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Issues in the configuration of the CO-PA module, such as incorrect settings in the derivation strategy or missing entries in the characteristic derivation tables.
  
  
  Data Transfer Issues: Problems during data transfer from other modules or systems can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Solutions to KE095 Error
  
  
  Check Derivation Structures: Review the derivation structures in the configuration settings. Ensure that all necessary characteristics and rules are correctly defined.
  
  
  Validate Characteristics: Ensure that all required characteristics are available and correctly assigned in the relevant master data and transaction data.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Go through the configuration settings in the CO-PA module to ensure that everything is set up correctly. This includes checking the derivation strategy and any related settings.
  
  
  Analyze Error Logs: Use transaction codes like KE30 or KE31 to analyze the error logs and identify specific issues related to the derivation process.
  
  
  Test Derivation Rules: Test the derivation rules in a controlled environment to ensure they work as expected. This can help identify any issues before they affect production data.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to CO-PA and derivation structures for any known issues or additional guidance.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists and cannot be resolved through the above steps, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  
  Related Information
  
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KE30 (Report for CO-PA), KE31 (Maintain Derivation Structures), and KE4S (Display CO-PA Document).
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to KE095 for updates or patches that may address known issues.
  
  
  Training and Documentation: Consider training sessions or documentation on CO-PA configuration and derivation structures to enhance understanding and troubleshooting skills.
