No area exists for cost accounting valuation

Help Document

Diagnosis

You need to have at least one depreciation area that manages values for cost accounting. The values from this depreciation area always have to be capitalized 100%. Therefore, no version can be assigned to this area. The area can be the book depreciation area, or an area that has a cost-accounting area type.

One of these reasons could explain the error:

• If your company code currency is different from your controlling area currency and you do not use a capitalization version in the book depreciation area, you need an area which is designated as a cost-accounting area (area type 7) and is managed in controlling area currency.
• If your company code currency is different from your controlling area currency and you do use a capitalization version in the book depreciation area, you need an area which is designated as a cost-accounting area (area type 7) and is managed in company code currency, and a further area which adopts values from this area and is managed in controlling area currency.
