• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RESCSU058 - Cost object SU is not allowed for apportionment rule ?

  The SAP error message RESCSU058 indicates that a specific cost object (in this case, a cost center or internal order) is not allowed for the apportionment rule you are trying to use. This typically occurs in the context of cost allocation or distribution processes within SAP Controlling (CO).
  Cause:
  
  Incompatible Cost Object: The cost object (SU) you are trying to use is not compatible with the apportionment rule defined in the system. This could be due to the configuration of the apportionment rule itself.
  Missing Configuration: The apportionment rule may not be set up to include the specific cost object type you are trying to use.
  Cost Object Status: The cost object may be in a status that does not allow it to be used for apportionment (e.g., it may be closed or inactive).
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization restrictions preventing the use of the cost object in the context of the apportionment rule.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Apportionment Rule Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the apportionment rule in SAP (Transaction code: OKB9 or similar).
  Verify that the cost object type (e.g., cost center, internal order) is included in the rule.
  
  
  
  Review Cost Object Status:
  
  Check the status of the cost object (Transaction code: KS03 for cost centers or KO03 for internal orders).
  Ensure that the cost object is active and not closed.
  
  
  
  Adjust Cost Object Assignment:
  
  If the cost object is not allowed, consider using a different cost object that is compatible with the apportionment rule.
  
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration, consult with your SAP CO configuration team to ensure that the apportionment rules are set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to use the cost object in the context of the apportionment rule.
