    No <DS:GLOS.352A99F688E65CD5E10000009B38F974>variances</> can be
    calculated for <DS:GLOS.3526C3D7AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>manufacturing
    orders</> that deliver to a
    <DS:GLOS.3526B6CFAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>nonvaluated sales order stock
    </> or <DS:GLOS.3526B6F4AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>nonvaluated project
    stock</>.
    In <DS:GLOS.3526BEACAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>joint production</>,
    variances are determined at the level of the order item. Variances can
    only be determined for order items in joint production orders if the
    following conditions are met:
    All order items have final delivery status
    The function <LS>distribution for co-products</> was executed before
    the variances were calculated
    For the orders (manufacturing orders and
    <DS:GLOS.3526B6F2AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>product cost collectors</>)
    assigned to a <DS:GLOS.3526B6C7AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>cost object
    hierarchy</>, you specify how the orders are handled in the
    <DS:GLOS.3526B6C6AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>cost object type</>.
    If the <LS>Control through variance key</> indicator is selected in the
    cost object category, the
    <DS:GLOS.3526B740AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>variance key</> determines
    how the order is handled.
    For orders <ZH>with</> a variance key,
    <DS:GLOS.3526B637AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>variances</> are calculated
    for the order.
    For orders <ZH>without</> a variance key, variances are calculated for
    the cost object hierarchy as a whole.
    If the <LS>Always cost object hierachy</> indicator is set in the cost
    object category, orders that are assigned to a cost object hierarchy
    are always included variance calculation, regardless of whether the
    assigned orders have a variance key or not.
    No variances are calculated for orders that:
    Do not have a variance key, or whose variance key is invalid
    Are locked
    Are flagged for deletion
    Have a deletion indicator
    Have the status "closed"
    If the order has the settlement type <LS>full settlement</>, variances
    between the (net) actual costs and the target costs can only be
    calculated if the order has the status "delivered" or "technically
    completed". If the order has settlement type <LS>periodic</> and no
    goods receipt was entered for the order in the period, only remaining
    variances are calculated.

    System Response

    No variances were calculated, or only remaining variances were
    calculated.

    How to fix this error?

    Check your entries.
    Check the order. For example, check the following:
    Whether a variance key was entered
    The settlement type of the order
    The status of the order
    If necessary, set the status to "delivered" by entering a goods receipt
    and setting the <GL:"delivery_completed"_indicator>"delivery completed"
    indicator</>.
    If appropriate, set the status to "techically completed".
