• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_SERVICES006 - Settlement document lists cannot be copied ?

  The SAP error message WZRE_SERVICES006: Settlement document lists cannot be copied typically occurs during settlement processing in Controlling (CO) when trying to copy or transfer settlement document lists, for example, when creating or processing settlement documents for internal orders, WBS elements, or other CO objects.
  
  Cause
  
  
  Settlement document lists are system-generated and cannot be manually copied or transferred.
  
  The system does not allow copying of settlement document lists because these lists are created dynamically by the system during the settlement run or settlement processing. Attempting to copy or reuse these lists manually (e.g., via a copy function or a custom program) triggers this error.
  
  
  Incorrect usage of settlement functions or custom developments
  
  Sometimes, custom programs or user actions try to copy settlement document lists directly, which is not supported.
  
  
  Settlement document list is locked or incomplete
  
  If the settlement document list is incomplete, locked, or in an inconsistent state, the system may prevent copying.
  
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Do not attempt to copy settlement document lists manually
  
  Settlement document lists are generated by the system during settlement processing and should not be copied manually. Instead, run the settlement process again to generate a new list.
  
  
  Use standard settlement transactions and functions
  
  Always use standard SAP transactions such as KO88 (Order Settlement), CJ88 (WBS Element Settlement), or CJ8G (Project Settlement) to process settlements. These transactions handle the creation and management of settlement document lists correctly.
  
  
  Check for custom code or user exits
  
  If the error occurs in a custom program or user exit, review the code to ensure it does not attempt to copy or manipulate settlement document lists directly. Modify the code to use standard SAP APIs or BAPIs for settlement processing.
  
  
  Verify settlement document list status
  
  Check if the settlement document list is complete and not locked. Use transaction KOB1 or KOB2 to review settlement documents and their status.
  
  
  Re-run settlement if necessary
  
  If the settlement document list is corrupted or incomplete, consider re-running the settlement process to regenerate the list.
  
  
  
  Related Information
  
  
  Settlement document lists are temporary lists generated during settlement runs to summarize the documents to be settled.
  
  
  Settlement processing in SAP CO involves creating settlement documents that transfer costs from sender objects (e.g., internal orders, WBS elements) to receiver objects (e.g., cost centers, assets).
  
  
  Standard SAP transactions for settlement include:
  
  KO88 - Order Settlement
  CJ88 - WBS Element Settlement
  CJ8G - Project Settlement
  KOB1/KOB2 - Display Settlement Documents
  
  
  
  SAP Notes and documentation related to settlement processing and error messages can provide additional guidance.
