• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KEO092 - In the overview area, select one organizational unit only ?

  The SAP error message KEO092, which states "In the overview area, select one organizational unit only," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Controlling (CO) module, particularly when working with reports or transactions that require a single organizational unit to be selected.
  Cause:
  This error arises when the user attempts to select multiple organizational units (such as cost centers, profit centers, or internal orders) in a report or transaction that is designed to process only one organizational unit at a time. The system expects a single selection to proceed with the operation.
  Solution:
  To resolve the KEO092 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Review Your Selection: Go back to the selection screen of the report or transaction where the error occurred. Ensure that you have selected only one organizational unit.
  
  
  Clear Multiple Selections: If you have inadvertently selected multiple organizational units, clear the selections and choose only one.
  
  
  Use Filters: If you need to analyze data across multiple organizational units, consider running the report multiple times for each unit or using filters that allow for a broader analysis without violating the single selection requirement.
  
  
  Check for Default Settings: Sometimes, default settings or user parameters may pre-select multiple units. Check your user settings to ensure that only one organizational unit is selected by default.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the selection criteria for the specific report or transaction, refer to the SAP documentation or help files for guidance on the expected input.

  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific transaction or report you are using.
