How To Fix KJ129 - RA data only updated in controlling area currency

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KJ - Cost Object Controlling for Make-to-Order Production

• Message number: 129

• Message text: RA data only updated in controlling area currency

What causes this issue?

In the basic data of the controlling area, the
<DS:GLOS.3526BA4CAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>currency type</> is not set
to 10. When the currency type is not 10, the
<DS:GLOS.WIP_calculation>WIP calculation</> function or the
<DS:GLOS.results_analysis>results analysis</> function normally update
the <DS:GLOS.results_analysis_data>results analysis data</> in object
currency (company code currency). However, no results analysis data was
updated in object currency for the object being processed.
Possible causes:
In the basic data of the controlling area, you changed the currency
type when no data conversion was necessary.
In Customizing for the
<DS:GLOS.3526B73EAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>results analysis version</>
for a version relevant to settlement, you selected the option
<DS:DE.BEW_ALL_BU>Cross-comp. valuation</> (this option may have been
selected and then later deselected).
You are executing results analysis for an object that was created in
Release 2.2 and whose results analysis data was not converted.

System Response

The WIP calculation or results analysis function updates the results
analysis data only in controlling area currency even though the
currency type is not 10.
&ADDITIONAL_HINTS&
If you settle the cost of sales calculated by the results analysis
function or the revenue that affects net income to an account
assignment object that is neither a profitability segment nor a G/L
account (such as an internal order), it may be that the receiver is
only debited in controlling area currency. This may result in
inconsistencies in cost reports. The sender is correctly credited only
in controlling area currency.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KJ129 - RA data only updated in controlling area currency ?

  The SAP error message KJ129 indicates that the RA (Results Analysis) data has been updated only in the controlling area currency. This typically occurs in the context of results analysis for projects or internal orders when there is a mismatch or issue with currency settings.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Settings: The primary cause of this error is that the results analysis data is being recorded or processed in a currency that is not the same as the controlling area currency. This can happen if the project or order is set up in a different currency.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the controlling area or project settings that prevent the data from being updated in the transaction currency.
  Missing Exchange Rates: If the system does not have the necessary exchange rates defined for the currencies involved, it may default to only updating in the controlling area currency.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Currency Settings: Verify the currency settings for the project or internal order. Ensure that the currency used matches the controlling area currency or that the necessary configurations are in place to handle multiple currencies.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration of the controlling area and the project settings in SAP. Ensure that the settings allow for the correct handling of currencies.
  Update Exchange Rates: If applicable, ensure that the exchange rates are maintained in the system for the currencies involved. This can be done through transaction codes like OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates).
  Reprocess Results Analysis: After making the necessary adjustments, reprocess the results analysis to see if the error persists. This can often be done through the transaction for results analysis (e.g., KKAO or KKAJ).
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling currency issues in results analysis.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KKAO (Results Analysis) and KKAJ (Results Analysis: Actual).
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message, as they may provide additional insights or patches that address known issues.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform results analysis and that there are no restrictions based on user roles.
