    SAP Error Message:

    WXP620: A break-down table must be assigned to break-down &1


    Cause:

    This warning message occurs in SAP when you are working with break-downs in the context of costing sheets, activity types, or cost component structures (depending on the module and context). The system expects that for a given break-down (a way to split or analyze costs), a corresponding break-down table must be assigned.

    • The break-down table contains the detailed structure or rules on how the break-down is to be performed.
    • If the break-down is defined but no break-down table is assigned, the system cannot process the break-down correctly, hence the warning.

    When does it typically occur?

    • During configuration or maintenance of costing sheets or cost component structures.
    • When defining break-downs for cost elements or activity types.
    • When running cost estimates or analyses that require break-downs.

    Solution:

    1. Assign a break-down table to the break-down:

      • Go to the relevant customizing transaction (e.g., for costing sheets: OKTZ or for cost component structures: OKKN).
      • Find the break-down in question (the one referenced by &1 in the message).
      • Assign the appropriate break-down table that defines how the break-down should be executed.
    2. Check the break-down configuration:

      • Verify that the break-down is correctly defined.
      • Ensure that the break-down table assigned matches the intended analysis or costing logic.
    3. If the break-down is not needed:

      • Remove or deactivate the break-down to avoid the warning.

    Related Information:

    • Break-down tables are used to specify how costs or quantities are split into components or segments.
    • This message is a warning (WXP620), so it may not stop processing but indicates incomplete configuration.
    • Proper assignment ensures accurate cost component split and reporting.
    • Relevant customizing paths depend on the module:
      • Controlling (CO) ? Costing Sheets ? Break-downs
      • Product Costing ? Cost Component Structure ? Break-downs
    • SAP Notes or documentation related to costing sheets and break-downs may provide additional guidance.

    If you provide the exact transaction or module context, I can give more precise steps. But generally, the key is to assign the correct break-down table to the break-down in your configuration.


    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Cause Break-down defined without assigned break-down table
    Effect System cannot process break-down correctly; warning issued
    Solution Assign appropriate break-down table to the break-down in customizing
    Related Info Occurs in costing sheets, cost component structures, activity types; warning message WXP620

    If you need help with the exact customizing path or transaction, please specify your SAP module or scenario.
