Assistance Needed with Substitution for FI Component (Event 0005)

0 Kudos
258

Dear SAP Experts,

I encountered an issue while attempting to activate Cost of Sales (COS) accounting for a specific company. Below is the path I followed:

Path:
T.Code: SPRO > SAP Reference IMG > Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Functional Area for Cost of Sales Accounting > Activate Cost of Sales Accounting

After selecting the desired company and marking "Active" in the COS column, I received the following message:
"Substitution for FI component, event 0005 not yet activated."

Could someone please clarify the following points:

  1. What is the "Substitution for FI component, event 0005"?
  2. In which scenarios is it used?
  3. How can I resolve this issue to proceed with activating COS accounting?

I’ve also attached an image for further clarification.

Best regards,
Mostafa Mahmoud
