3809209 - CK241: Value of cost component split is less than zero during costing release in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Symptom

Error CK241 - Value of cost component split is less than zero during costing

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open Edit Costing Run app
  2. Maintain the required costing variant, plant, version, and company code data.
  3. Execute Step 2 “Costing”; the system raises error CK241 for one or more materials.

Cause

The cost component split should not be less than zero

In cases where the value of the by-product is significantly high, the resulting negative cost component split is expected behavior

Resolution

  1. Open the “Monitor Material Prices” app.
  2. Verify the material’s prices across all relevant ledgers and currencies (for example, ledger 0L in company code currency and the group currency).
  3. Identify any inconsistency where the material price was changed only in one ledger or currency.
  4. Align the material price across the required ledgers and currencies (for example, also update the group currency) according to your organization’s pricing policy.
  5. Re-run Step 2 “Costing” in Edit Costing run CK40N for the affected materials.
  6. Confirm that costs are positive and CK241 no longer appears.
