Statistical cost elements cannot be reposted
Help Document

Diagnosis

You are attempting to repost a statistical cost element (cost element category 90 - cost element for balance sheet account).

System Response

Reposting costs or CO line items is not supported for cost element category 90 in the standard system.

Procedure

Reverse the original posting if necessary, and enter adjustment postings in FI or MM.

In Customizing, you can switch off the message to enable reposting for cost elements for special balance sheet accounts:

  • When the message is switched off, costs can be reposted if the cost element is a cost element for a special balance sheet account and message KI 098 is switched off as well. Other cost elements of category 90 (such as cost elements for material stock accounts) cannot be reposted.
  • Message type "E" (standard setting): Costs for statistical cost elements of category 90 cannot be reposted.

Procedure for System Administration

To change the message type of message BK 256, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) under "General Controlling", Change Message Control (application area BK, message number 256).
