Summary :
When attempting to post costs to budget objects in SAP systems (e.g., internal order, WBS element), users may encounter availability control warnings or errors indicating that the assigned value exceeds the current budget or release. This discrepancy is due to the complex settings and computations in the SAP Customizing, making the reproduction of assigned value calculations challenging. The SAP Note details the correct method to display the assigned values through budget transactions (e.g., CJ31, KO23). It emphasizes the discrepancy between assigned values shown in cost reports and those used for active availability control. To troubleshoot and analyze errors, transactions such as BPFCTRA0 for projects and BPFCTRA1 for orders are recommended. Understanding the detailed logic and settings for calculating assigned values, specific to internal orders and projects, is critical for accurate budget management. Errors in assigned values should prompt a review of the availability control setup or possibly contact SAP Support.
