• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KJ339 - Quantity-based results analysis only possible for sales order ?

  The SAP error message KJ339 indicates that a quantity-based results analysis is only possible for sales orders. This error typically arises when you attempt to perform results analysis on a cost object that is not a sales order, such as a project or internal order, while the system is configured to expect a sales order.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Cost Object Type: The system is set up to perform quantity-based results analysis, but the cost object you are trying to analyze is not a sales order.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration for results analysis may be set to only allow quantity-based analysis for sales orders, which can lead to this error when other types of cost objects are involved.
  Missing or Incorrect Data: The necessary data for performing quantity-based results analysis may be missing or incorrectly set up in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Cost Object Type: Ensure that you are using a sales order for the results analysis. If you are trying to analyze a different type of cost object, consider switching to a sales order or changing the analysis type.
  Review Configuration: If you need to perform quantity-based results analysis on other cost objects (like internal orders or projects), you may need to adjust the configuration settings in the SAP system. This may involve:
  
  Accessing the configuration settings for results analysis in the SAP system (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigating to the appropriate section for results analysis and checking the settings for the types of cost objects allowed.
  
  
  Use Alternative Analysis Methods: If quantity-based results analysis is not applicable for your cost object, consider using other methods of results analysis that are compatible with the type of cost object you are working with.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidance on how to handle results analysis for your particular scenario.
