Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues where different profitability segments appear in CO-PA documents versus source documents due to characteristics changes made using enhancement COPA0005. Identified as COPA0005 related inconsistencies, the enrichment operates in the FI/CO interface where characteristics updated post document finalization do not reflect on FI/CO but are copied into CO-PA line items. This process creates multiple profitability segments per line item, potentially affecting performance, summarization levels, realignments, and reporting. Exclusive usage of COPA0001 for customer-specific characteristic changes and cautious programming are recommended due to risks of FI inconsistencies and possible system commits affecting stability.
