• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KJ175 - Do not use valuation basis &1 with simulation "actual with plan" ?

  The SAP error message KJ175, which states "Do not use valuation basis &1 with simulation 'actual with plan'," typically occurs in the context of Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) when you are trying to run a report or transaction that involves comparing actual data with planned data using a specific valuation basis that is not compatible with the simulation type you have selected.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the use of a valuation basis that is not allowed for the simulation type "actual with plan." In SAP CO-PA, different valuation bases can be used for different types of analyses, and certain combinations of valuation bases and simulation types are restricted. The valuation basis you are trying to use (indicated by &1 in the error message) is not compatible with the "actual with plan" simulation.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Valuation Basis: Review the valuation basis you are using. Ensure that it is appropriate for the simulation type "actual with plan." You may need to switch to a different valuation basis that is compatible.
  
  
  Change Simulation Type: If you need to use the specific valuation basis that is causing the error, consider changing the simulation type to one that is compatible with that valuation basis.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources to understand the valid combinations of valuation bases and simulation types in your specific version of SAP.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: If you have access to configuration settings, check the settings for CO-PA to see if there are any restrictions or settings that need to be adjusted.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide guidance based on your specific system configuration and requirements.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP CO-PA Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for CO-PA to understand the different valuation bases and simulation types available.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in CO-PA that may help you analyze or adjust your settings (e.g., KE30 for reports, KE4S for simulation).
  User Forums: Check SAP community forums or user groups for discussions related to this error message, as other users may have encountered and resolved similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
