What causes this issue?

In the <DS:GLOS.results_analysis_version>results analysis version</>
for <DS:GLOS.results_analysis>results analysis</>, you can turn on
either the <LS>Transfer to Financial Accounting</> indicator or the
<LS>Cross-company valuation</> indicator.
<ls>Note</>
You cannot change the <LS>Cross-company valuation</> indicator in
Customizing for the calculation of work in process in the
<DS:GLOS.Product_Cost_by_Order_or_Period>Product Cost by Order or
Product Cost by Period</> component. This indicator can only be changed
for results analysis in Product Cost by Sales Order.
If the <LS>Cross-company valuation</> indicator is turned on, you can
do the following for cross-company projects:
Summarize the planned values below the <DS:GLOS.WBS_element>WBS element
</> for which you are performing results analysis, and compare them
with the actual costs that were already settled on the WBS element
In this case, the system ignores all actual costs that were assigned to
the WBS elements to be summarized but not yet settled.
Summarize the planned and actual values below the WBS element for which
results analysis is to be performed
In this case, all actual values are included. Results analysis here is
purely for statistical purposes. To prevent the summarized actual costs
from being passed on to Financial Accounting, you must choose a results
analysis version for which the <LS>Transfer to Financial Accounting</>
indicator is not turned on.
You can also turn on the indicator for cross-company sales order
processing.

System Response

indicator in the results analysis version.

company codes, you cannot transfer data to Financial Accounting. In
