Are you in production or doing this in test system.

If you are in production, you cannot deactivate, as the documents already must have been posted.

If it is a sand box system, then you can delete the data in OBR1 and delete the Controlling area.

But, in the first place why you have activated the Controlling Area, if it is not required?

Please see Ravi's post and do the same.....but suggested you to do it in TEST system first.

Please be careful

I am just wondering, this is a very critical transport with reference to controlling module. How, this has been moved up to production that means this must have been tested in your DEV and QA system.

Before changing anything have you need to check whether any other company codes are assigned to this company code? If this is the case, you cannot deactivate the Controlling Area.

If you believe that no documents are posted, you can remove the assignment, but, before moving change up to production, you are required to test this change thoroughly in each system DEV, QA and possibly pre-production also.

I also wonder once the controlling area is activated and any cost objects are created, it would definitely expect for cost object at the time of posting. How the documents are not being posted for these many days in a live system?

Any way, as advised by Narasimhulu, you may please share your OKKP settings to get clarity for other forum members.

Hi Ravi,

I have experienced a similar issue today like Bobby using the ECC 6. 0 server. I have tried this on the ECC5.0 server and 4.0 server but no issues. I am thinking this may be an issue with the ECC6.0 server and I am using this on the test system.

I have to create basic controlling settings and but did not activate the various components to be allow me proceed further.

Can any one be of assistance with any other alternatives?

Regards

Jones
