PA receiver may not be combined with variances

Message type: E = Error

Message class: KD - CO Settlement

Message number: 274

Message text: PA receiver may not be combined with variances



What causes this issue?

A variance key is set in the order.
The settlement profile for the orders stipulates that variances are to
be settled.
You can only transfer variances to Profitabily Analysis if the whole
balance is being settled to the receiver "Material".


System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.



How to fix this error?

Change the settlement rule for the order so that 100% of the costs are
settled to a receiver
or
delete the variance key in the order
or
change the settlement profile so that variances can no longer be
settled for this order
<ZH>Example</>
One reject item was produced in an order, accounting for 10% of the
costs. You can only settle the resulting scrap costs to a receiver
other than "material" if no variances are to be transferred to
Profitability Analysis.
Alternatively, you can use a CO transfer to clear the scrap costs from
the order, or
you can include the reject item in the variance calculation and the
transfer to Profitability Analysis
