  The SAP error message /SAPPCE/PNV211 Contract values and planned revenues/costs do not have same CO version typically occurs in the context of Project System (PS) or Controlling (CO) modules when there is a mismatch between the controlling versions used for contract values and the planned revenues or costs associated with a project or contract.
  Cause:
  
  Different CO Versions: The error indicates that the contract values are recorded in one CO version, while the planned revenues or costs are recorded in another. This can happen if the system is configured to use different versions for different purposes (e.g., actual vs. planned).
  Data Entry Errors: Manual data entry errors can lead to inconsistencies in the CO versions assigned to different elements of the contract.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration of the controlling area or project settings may not align, leading to discrepancies in the CO versions being used.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check CO Versions: Review the CO versions assigned to the contract values and the planned revenues/costs. Ensure that they are using the same version.
  
  You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction codes (e.g., CJ20N for project management) and checking the details of the contract and associated planned costs/revenues.
  
  
  
  Adjust CO Version: If you find that the CO versions are different, you may need to adjust the settings to ensure consistency. This could involve:
  
  Changing the CO version for either the contract values or the planned revenues/costs to match.
  If necessary, consult with your SAP configuration team to ensure that the correct CO version is being used for all relevant entries.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in the system to identify any other discrepancies that may exist. This can help in identifying if there are other related issues that need to be addressed.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing CO versions and resolving related errors.
  
  
  User Training: Ensure that users involved in data entry and project management are trained on the importance of maintaining consistency in CO versions to prevent similar issues in the future.
  
  
  Related Information:
