How To Fix KE215 - Error in CO-PA derivation rule &

KE215 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KE -

• Message number: 215

• Message text: Error in CO-PA derivation rule &

What causes this issue?

Derivation structure "&V1&" was defined
to derive from the field "&V3&" (source field). The
system tried to find records for the derivation rule for characteristic
value "&V2&" of the source field using date "&V4&".

System Response

No derivation rule was defined for this characteristic. Consequently,
the system displays this error message.

How to fix this error?

Create a derivation rule for characteristic value "&V2&" of source field
"&V3&". The interval you enter must contain the date "&V4&".

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE215 - Error in CO-PA derivation rule & ?

  The SAP error message KE215 indicates that there is an issue with the CO-PA (Controlling-Profitability Analysis) derivation rule. This error typically occurs when the system is unable to derive the necessary characteristics for profitability analysis based on the defined rules. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  
  Cause:
  
  Missing Derivation Rules: The derivation rules for the characteristics in CO-PA may not be defined correctly or may be missing.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for CO-PA may not be set up properly, leading to issues in deriving the required values.
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies or missing data in the master data or transaction data that CO-PA relies on.
  Incorrect Assignment: The assignment of characteristics to the derivation rules may not be correct, leading to failures in the derivation process.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Derivation Rules:
  
  Go to the transaction code KE4I (Maintain Derivation Rules) and review the derivation rules for the relevant characteristics.
  Ensure that all
