• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KFPR040 - Statistical order & not permitted ?

  The SAP error message KFPR040 indicates that a statistical order is not permitted in the context of the operation you are trying to perform. This typically occurs when you are attempting to post costs or perform a transaction that is not allowed for statistical orders.
  Cause:
  
  Statistical Orders: Statistical orders are used for tracking costs without affecting the actual financial accounting. They are often used for internal reporting and do not have a direct impact on financial statements.
  Transaction Type: The operation you are trying to perform (e.g., posting costs, settling costs) is not allowed for statistical orders. This is because statistical orders are not intended for actual cost postings.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to restrict certain operations on statistical orders.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Order Type: Ensure that you are using the correct order type for the transaction you are trying to perform. If you need to post actual costs, you should use a non-statistical order.
  Review Transaction: If you are trying to perform a transaction that is not allowed for statistical orders, consider whether you can change the order type or the nature of the transaction.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources related to order types and their permitted transactions to understand the limitations of statistical orders.
  Configuration Review: If you believe that the operation should be allowed, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to order types and their permitted transactions.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Order Types: Familiarize yourself with the different order types in SAP and their purposes. Statistical orders are typically used for tracking and reporting, while real orders are used for actual cost postings.
