UMB013
- Standard hierarchy cannot be moved ?The SAP error message UMB013, which states "Standard hierarchy cannot be moved," typically occurs in the context of SAP's controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with cost centers, profit centers, or internal orders. This error indicates that there is an attempt to move a standard hierarchy node, which is not allowed in SAP.
Cause:
- Standard Hierarchy Restrictions: In SAP, standard hierarchies are predefined structures that cannot be altered in certain ways. Moving a node in a standard hierarchy is restricted because it can affect the integrity of the reporting and data structure.
- Hierarchy Configuration: The configuration settings for the hierarchy may not allow for certain types of changes, such as moving nodes.
- Data Dependencies: There may be existing dependencies or data that rely on the current structure of the hierarchy, preventing changes.
Solution:
- Review Hierarchy Structure: Check the current structure of the standard hierarchy to ensure that you are not trying to move a node that is part of the standard hierarchy. If you need to make changes, consider creating a new hierarchy or modifying a non-standard hierarchy.
- Use Non-Standard Hierarchies: If you need flexibility in moving nodes, consider using a non-standard hierarchy where such changes are permitted.
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on managing hierarchies in your version of SAP.
- Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the hierarchy. Sometimes, restrictions can be due to user permissions.
- Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. They can provide insights based on your specific configuration and version.
