How To Fix MLCCS042 - Split for preliminary valuation in currency &2 not found

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: MLCCS - Message for Actual Costing

• Message number: 042

• Message text: Split for preliminary valuation in currency &2 not found

What causes this issue?

The actual cost component split for the material is managed in plant
&v1&. The system was unable to find the cost component split for the
preliminary valuation in currency &v2&.

System Response

In order not to prevent further processing (release of standard cost
estimate, release of future valuation price or price change) the
material ledger continues to use cost component split at the old
standard price for the preliminary valuation. However, this can lead to
an incorrect cost component split for this period.
This problem does not have any influence on the release of a standard
cost estimate.
