How To Fix KJ230 - The (reduced) plan. rev. = 0, so you cannot use method of apport. (&,&)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

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

• Message number: 230

• Message text: The (reduced) plan. rev. = 0, so you cannot use method of apport. (&,&)

What causes this issue?

The method of apportionment apportions the values calculated by
<DS:GLOS.results_analysis>results analysis</> to the
<DS:GLOS.line_ID>line IDs</> in proportion to the planned revenues for
each line ID. In this case the planned revenue is zero.
The planned revenue can be zero under the following conditions:
No revenue was planned on the object
No line ID of <DS:DE.KATEGORIE>category</> "E" (revenues) was defined in
Customizing
The reduced planned revenue can be zero if the total of the planned
costs of category "P" (complaints and commissions) and category "D"
(special costs) is the same as the planned revenue.
In either case, the selected method of apportionment cannot be used
because the system cannot calculate the
<DS:GLOS.3526B6BAAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>calculated costs</> on the
basis of the available data.
The pair (&V1&, &V2&) means (line ID category, results analysis form).
The line ID categories are:
K = costs
P = costs of commissions and complaints
The results analysis forms are:
B = work in process
R = reserves for unrealized costs
P = reserves for commissions and complaints

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

Check the planned values of the object for which you want to perform
results analysis.
Check the categories in Customizing under <LS>Define Update for Results
Analysis</>.
Check the settings in the <LS>valuation method</> that is relevant for
the <DS:GLOS.results_analysis_version>results analysis version</>. If
necessary, select a different method of apportionment.
If you are not planning any revenues on the object at all, you can
select a results analysis method in simplified Customizing for the
valuation method that does not require planned revenues.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KJ230 - The (reduced) plan. rev. = 0, so you cannot use method of apport. (&,&) ?

  The SAP error message KJ230 typically occurs in the context of SAP Controlling (CO) when dealing with planning and budgeting processes. This error indicates that the system is unable to use the specified method of allocation because the revision of the plan is set to zero. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Plan Revision: The error message indicates that the plan revision is set to zero. In SAP, planning data is often versioned, and a revision of zero usually means that there is no valid planning version available for the specified data.
  Allocation Method: The method of allocation you are trying to use requires a valid plan revision to function correctly. If the revision is zero, the system cannot proceed with the allocation.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Plan Versions:
  
  Go to the planning transaction (e.g., KP06 for cost center planning) and check if there are any valid plan versions available.
  Ensure that you have a plan version that is not set to zero. You may need to create or activate a new plan version.
  
  
  
  Create or Activate Plan:
  
  If there is no valid plan version, you may need to create a new plan version or activate an existing one. This can usually be done in the planning transaction or through the configuration settings in SAP.
  Make sure to set the appropriate parameters for the new plan version.
  
  
  
  Review Allocation Method:
  
  Check the allocation method you are using. Ensure that it is compatible with the available plan versions and that it is correctly configured.
  If necessary, consult the documentation for the specific allocation method to ensure it is being used correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking the plan versions and allocation methods, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KP06 (Cost Center Planning), KP07 (Cost Center Planning - Change), and KP08 (Cost Center Planning - Display).
  SAP Documentation: Review SAP Help documentation for detailed information on planning and allocation methods in SAP Controlling.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify planning versions and allocation methods.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the KJ230 error and proceed with your planning and allocation tasks in SAP.
