• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IV036 - Settlement type & must be set to automatic gross value determination ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZRE_IV036: Settlement type & must be set to automatic gross value determination
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the settlement process in SAP when the settlement type assigned to a cost object (such as a production order, internal order, or WBS element) is not configured for Automatic Gross Value Determination (GVD). 
  In other words, the system expects the settlement type to have the "Automatic Gross Value Determination" indicator active, but it is either missing or incorrectly set. Without this setting, the system cannot automatically calculate and post the gross settlement values, leading to the error.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Settlement Type: Defines how costs are settled from a cost object to receivers.
  Automatic Gross Value Determination: A functionality that allows SAP to automatically calculate the gross settlement values based on the costs incurred and the settlement rules.
  If the settlement type is not set for automatic GVD, the system cannot perform the automatic calculation and throws this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Settlement Type Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction OKO7 (or SPRO path: Controlling ? Internal Orders ? Settle Internal Orders ? Define Settlement Types).
  Select the settlement type used in your cost object.
  Verify if the checkbox "Automatic Gross Value Determination" (or similar wording) is activated.
  
  
  
  Activate Automatic Gross Value Determination:
  
  If the checkbox is not set, activate it.
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Settlement:
  
  After activating the setting, try to settle the cost object again.
  
  
  
  Additional Checks:
  
  Ensure that the settlement rules are correctly maintained.
  Verify that the cost object is assigned the correct settlement type.
  Check if the cost object is released and has costs to settle.
