• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KO265 - Simulation run completed; log generated ?

  The SAP error message KO265, which states "Simulation run completed; log generated," is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense. Instead, it indicates that a simulation run for a controlling (CO) transaction has been completed, and a log has been generated for review. This message typically appears in the context of cost center accounting, internal orders, or other CO-related processes where simulations are performed to analyze the impact of certain transactions without posting them to the actual ledgers.
  
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode: The message is triggered when a user runs a simulation for a transaction (like a cost allocation or assessment) in the CO module. The system processes the simulation and generates a log detailing the results.
  No Actual Posting: Since it is a simulation, no actual postings are made to the financial ledgers, which is why the message is informational rather than an error.
  
  
  Solution:
