How To Fix UCF9006 - &1: Required breakdown for subassignment &2 w/change of fixed value &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UCF9 - Messages for Balance Carryforward

• Message number: 006

• Message text: &1: Required breakdown for subassignment &2 w/change of fixed value &3

What causes this issue?

&V1& is to be carried forward.
&V1& has a required breakdown by subassignment &V2& with breakdown type
3 or 4. Subassignment &V2& belongs to a characteristic compound with
characteristic &V3&. The fixed value &V4& is defined in the breakdown
category of the item for characteristic &V3&. In the data record to be
carried forward, characteristic &V3& either has no value or has a value
that is not equal to &V4&.
A possible reason for this may be that in the old fiscal year, &V1& had
no breakdown by subassignment &V2&, or had a breakdown with a different
fixed value for characteristic &V3&. It is not possible to change the
fixed value of characteristic &V3& with breakdown type 3 or 4 for the
dependent subassignment &V2& because no value can be determined for
subassignment &V2& in conjunction with the new fixed value &V4&.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

For the old fiscal year, change the values for subassignments &V3& and
&V2& in all data records for &V1& (for example, in one of the special
periods). When doing this, you should change independent characteristic
&V3& to the value &V4&.
Then you will be able to run the balance carryforward.
