How To Fix UCF9007 - Carryforward &4 to &1: Required breakdown &2, fixed value change &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UCF9 - Messages for Balance Carryforward

• Message number: 007

• Message text: Carryforward &4 to &1: Required breakdown &2, fixed value change &3

What causes this issue?

**** similar to UCF9006; variables are different ****
&V4& is to be carried forward to &V1&.
&V1& has a required breakdown by subassignment &V2& with breakdown type
3 or 4. Subassignment &V2& belongs to a characteristic compound with
characteristic &V3&. A fixed value 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 the fixed value, even though &V4& has the same fixed value
for characteristic &V3& as &V1&.
A possible reason for this may be that in the old fiscal year, &V4& 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 the
subassignment in conjunction with the new fixed value.

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 &V4& (for example, in one of the special
periods). When doing this, you should change independent characteristic
&V3& to the value that is defined as the fixed value in the breakdown
categories of &V1& and &V4&.
Then you will be able to run the balance carryforward.
