  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSTRN065 - Error message posted for the allocation item ?

    SAP Error Message:

    Cause:

    The error message WSTRN065 typically occurs during the processing of allocation cycles in SAP Controlling (CO) when an error is detected in an allocation item. This means that while executing an assessment or distribution cycle, the system found an inconsistency or problem with one or more allocation items, causing the process to post an error message instead of completing successfully.

    Common causes include:

    • Incorrect or incomplete master data for sender or receiver cost objects.
    • Invalid or missing statistical key figures used in the allocation.
    • Allocation cycles with incorrect or inconsistent settings, such as wrong sender/receiver assignments.
    • Data inconsistencies in the controlling area or cost centers.
    • Authorization issues preventing posting.
    • Technical issues like missing or incorrect versions or periods.

    To resolve WSTRN065, follow these steps:

    1. Check the Allocation Cycle Log:

      • Go to transaction KSU5 (Execute Assessment Cycle) or KSV5 (Execute Distribution Cycle).

    2. Analyze the Allocation Item:

      • Identify the sender and receiver cost objects involved.
      • Check if the sender cost center or receiver cost center exists and is valid.

      • Check the cycle definition in KSU1 or KSV1.
      • Confirm that the sender and receiver assignments are correct.
      • Verify that the cycle is set up for the correct controlling area and fiscal period.
