KZ080 - Details

• The SAP error message KZ080, which states "Choose a lower-level cost object," typically occurs in the context of cost accounting or controlling when a user attempts to assign a higher-level cost object (like a cost center or internal order) to a transaction that requires a lower-level cost object (like a specific activity or cost element).
  
  Cause:
  
  Hierarchy Violation: The error arises when the system expects a lower-level cost object for a specific transaction, but a higher-level cost object is provided instead. For example, you might be trying to assign a cost center to a transaction that requires a specific activity type or cost element.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the controlling area that dictate which cost objects can be used in certain transactions.
  Transaction Type Restrictions: Certain transactions may have restrictions on the types of cost objects that can be used, leading to this error when the wrong type is selected.
