  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KO336 - Only product cost collectors with versions allowed for material & ?

    The SAP error message KO336 indicates that there is an issue with the product cost collector in the context of cost planning or controlling. Specifically, it suggests that the product cost collector you are trying to use is not allowed for the material in question due to versioning issues.

    Cause:

    1. Version Restrictions: The product cost collector may be set up with a specific version that is not compatible with the material you are trying to use. In SAP, different versions can be used for different purposes (e.g., planning, actual costing).
    2. Material Master Settings: The material master may not be configured correctly to allow the use of the specified product cost collector version.
    3. Costing Variant Issues: The costing variant assigned to the product cost collector may not be set up to include the material in question.
    4. Costing Run Not Executed: If the costing run has not been executed for the relevant version, it may lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check Product Cost Collector Version: Verify the version of the product cost collector you are using. Ensure that it is allowed for the material in question. You can do this by navigating to the product cost collector settings in SAP.
    2. Review Material Master Data: Check the material master data to ensure that it is correctly set up for costing. Look for any discrepancies in the costing views.
    3. Adjust Costing Variants: If necessary, adjust the costing variant settings to include the material and ensure that the product cost collector is compatible with the costing variant.
    4. Execute Costing Run: If the costing run has not been executed for the relevant version, perform the costing run to ensure that the necessary data is available for the product cost collector.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on how to configure product cost collectors and costing variants.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes such as CK11N (Create Material Cost Estimate) or CK40N (Costing Run) to manage costing data.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
    • User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify product cost collectors and material master data.
