Dear SAP Experts,

When i am doing VF02 I am getting below errror msg.

No standard cost estimate could be found for material "256780"

Message no. KE290

Diagnosis

In Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) the system tried to read a valid material cost estimate for material "256780" on the posting date "05-17-2012".

The system determined that no valid material cost estimate exists in plant "2308" on "05-17-2012" for material "256780".
Under " Define Keys for Accessing Material Cost Estimates", costing key "Z05" was used to look for the cost estimate, as defined in the Customizing settings for CO-PA.

Hi Vijay,

Well, I don't know your scenario, but what do you think, shouldn't you have a standard cost estimate for the material you want to sell?

If it's the case, the process as follow: create, mark and release.

1. In CK11N create a standard cost estimate and save. During this you have to give the costing variant. Before this, you can look up the parameters in CK13N for another material (plant is also important).

2. You have to mark it. Go to CK24, enter the posting period, plant and material. If the 5th icon from the left has "Release" on it, it means that you are in the Mark mode.

3. You can go to "Marking Allowance" to be ensure that the costing variant you are about to use is allowed for your Company Code. Since we are in the second half of May I guess it will be greenlighted, so you can go back. If it's red, click on it and a window will pop up and you have to pick up your costing variant. You can you use only one costing variant during the period, so it is very important to pick up the right one at the first step (during costing).

4. Uncheck "Test Run" and hit the clock (F8). Go back to the initial screen.

5. Hit the "Release" icon and it will change to "Marking". Yes, you are now in release mode. Uncheck "Test Run" and hit the clock (F8).

No you can release your SD document to Accounting.

Cheers
