• Message text: Costing lot size outside lot size interval of production version

What causes this issue?

You have specified costing lot size &V1& &V2& for the
<DS:GLOS.3559911290FA5063E10000009B38F984>production process</>. This
lot size is not within the lot size interval &V3& to &V4& &V2& of the
<DS:GLOS.3526C38DAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>production version</> created
for the production process. The costing lot size of the production
process is used for
<DS:GLOS.3526B76FAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>preliminary costing</> of the
<DS:GLOS.3526B6F2AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>product cost collector</>.

System Response

If you save a costing lot size that is outside the lot size interval of
the production version, this can result in the incorrect production
version being used. That is, this may result in the system using a
production vesion that is not the production version of the production
process when it determines the quantity structure in the preliminary
cost estimate of the product cost collector.

How to fix this error?

To make sure that the correct production version is used in the
preliminary cost estimate of the product cost collector, choose a
costing lot size that is within the lot size interval.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KOSA127 - Costing lot size outside lot size interval of production version ?

  The SAP error message KOSA127 indicates that the costing lot size you are trying to use is outside the defined lot size interval of the production version. This typically occurs during the costing process when the system attempts to calculate costs for a production order or a material based on a production version that has specific lot size constraints.
  Cause:
  
  Lot Size Interval: The production version has a defined lot size interval (e.g., minimum and maximum lot sizes) that the costing lot size does not fall within.
  Incorrect Costing Lot Size: The costing lot size you are using may be set incorrectly or may not match the production version's defined intervals.
  Production Version Configuration: The production version may not be configured correctly, or the lot sizes may not have been updated after changes were made to the production process.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Production Version:
  
  Go to the production version configuration in SAP (Transaction code: C223 or C202).
  Verify the lot size intervals defined for the production version. Ensure that the costing lot size you are using falls within these intervals.
  
  
  
  Adjust Costing Lot Size:
  
  If the costing lot size is incorrect, adjust it to fall within the defined lot size interval of the production version.
  You can do this in the material master or during the creation of the production order.
  
  
  
  Update Production Version:
  
  If the production version needs to be updated (e.g., if the production process has changed), make the necessary adjustments to the lot size intervals in the production version.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to production versions and costing to ensure you understand how to configure them correctly.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the costing process again to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  C223: Change Production Version
  C202: Display Production Version
  C201: Create Production Version
  
  
  Material Master: Check the material master data (Transaction code: MM03) to ensure that the costing parameters are set correctly.
  Costing Variants: Ensure that the costing variant being used is appropriate for the production version and material.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the KOSA127 error and successfully perform the costing process in SAP.
