• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KJ357 - No valuation indicator set. No RA will be carried out on object ?

  The SAP error message KJ357 ("No valuation indicator set. No RA will be carried out on object") typically occurs in the context of the SAP Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with internal orders, projects, or cost objects that are subject to results analysis (RA). This error indicates that the system cannot perform results analysis because the necessary valuation indicator has not been set for the specified object.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Valuation Indicator: The primary cause of this error is that the valuation indicator, which is required for results analysis, has not been defined for the relevant cost object (e.g., internal order, project).
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the controlling area or the specific cost object settings that prevent the valuation indicator from being assigned.
  Incorrect Object Type: The object type may not be set up correctly to allow for results analysis, or it may not be intended for RA processing.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the KJ357 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Cost Object:
  
  Navigate to the relevant cost object (e.g., internal order, project) in SAP.
  Verify if a valuation indicator is assigned to the object. This can usually be found in the master data of the cost object.
  
  
  
  Assign a Valuation Indicator:
  
  If no valuation indicator is set, you will need to assign one. This can typically be done in the configuration settings for the cost object type.
  For internal orders, you can do this by going to the order master data and checking the "Results Analysis" tab.
  
  
  
  Configuration Settings:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for results analysis is correctly set up in the controlling area. This includes checking the settings for the valuation methods and the assignment of valuation indicators to the relevant object types.
  You can access the configuration settings through the SPRO transaction and navigate to the appropriate path for controlling and results analysis.
  
  
  
  Check for Updates:
  
  If you have recently made changes to the configuration or master data, ensure that all necessary updates have been saved and activated.
