In this step you can change the default message type for certain messages for the preliminary costing of product cost collectors.

The following message types are available in the system:

  • Information message (message type "I")
  • Warning message (message type "W")
  • Error message (message type "E")
  • Termination message (message type "A")

The message type can only be changed for the messages that are displayed in the user-defined error management for the respective function (For example "Preliminary Costing of Product Cost Collectors" or "WIP Calculation and Results Analysis"). You can specify the message type for some messages. For other messages a minimum message type is defined. Also, for some messages, you can specify that the message is no longer displayed. To do this, set the the message type " " (blank).

Example

The following example is from the user-defined error management of Product Cost Planning:

There is no minimum message type for the message CK 037 "Lot size & & transferred from the costing view".

  • If you set the message type to " " (Blank), the message is not displayed in the log.
  • If you set the message type to "I" (Information), the message is displayed in the log. The cost estimate receives the status "calculated".
  • If you set the message type to "E" (Error), the cost estimate receives the status "With errors" after the message is issued and cannot be marked and released. .

The minimum message type is "I" (Information) for the message CK 065 "The activity type & in controlling area & cannot be allocated".

  • If the message type is "I" (Information), the message is displayed in the log. The cost estimate receives the status "Costed" and can be marked and released.
  • If you set the message type to "E" (Error), the cost estimate receives the status "With errors" after the message is issued and cannot be marked and released.
  • You cannot set the message type " " (Blank) for this message.

Requirements

Standard settings

In the SAP standard system you can find a list of the messages that can be influenced by user-defined error management in Customizing for the respective function or work area.

Recommendation

Often,during execution of the first tests for the individual functions, you will get an impression of the possibilties user-defined error management has to offer. Read the section User-Defined Error Management in Cost Object Controlling in the document Cost Object Controlling. You can find valuable information there on the use of user-defined error management.

Activities

In this process step, you receive a list of the user-defined messages for the relevant function.

To change the default message type, proceed as follows:

  1. Position your cursor on the line with the relevant message on the column Message type. When you click on the column, a dialog box appears with the allowed message types.
  2. Position your cursor on the desired message type and choose Enter. The system changes the message type for the selected message.

Further notes

The settings which you make here are also used in material costing in Product Cost Planning.
