KQ283 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KQ - Error Messages for Customizing Product Costing

• Message number: 283

• Message text: Results analysis version &1 has reference variant. Function not allowed

What causes this issue?

<DS:GLOS.results_analysis_version>Results analysis version</> &V1& has
a reference variant. The Customizing settings for this results analysis
version cannot be maintained directly but are transferred automatically
from the reference variant to assure they are identical.
When you save, changes to the settings of the reference variant are
transferred to the results analysis versions of the multiple
<DS:GLOS.valuation_view>valuation views</> that reference this version.
Note that the data of the referencing results analysis versions only
match the data of the reference variant after you save.
Because the entries of the referencing results analysis verions cannot
be changed, the function you chose is not available for these entries.

System Response

The system ignores the selected function for the results analysis
versions referencing the entries by deselecting these entries. The
selected function is, however, available for the remaining selected
entries with results analysis versions in operational valuation since
they have a reference variant.

How to fix this error?

The function can be executed for the associated entry of the referenced
results analysis version instead of for an entry with reference
variant.
