What causes this issue?

An inconsistency has occurred in the CO-PA data basis. During normal
operations, this error message should never occur.

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

In an operating concern, an attempt was made to determine
characteristics from object table CE4 for a profitability segment
number, but this object table does not exist in this operating concern.
This error message can only occur when an actual line item is displayed
or when a profitability report is run. The error has one of the
following possible causes:
You have deleted data from object table CE4 even though you have already
made account assignments to profitability segments in this operating
concern.
You have archived profitability segments so that they are no longer in
object table CE4.
You have changed the assignment of controlling area to operating
concern. The system then tries to interpret the segment numbers in the
new operating concern.

System Response

Further processing may not be useful.
When you execute a profitability report, you have a choice between
reading the remaining data from the archive or terminating the
execution.

How to fix this error?

The data in the object table may need to be rebuilt. If profitability
segments have been archived, they can be loaded back out of the archive.
Please check whether any SAP Notes have been created for error messages
