Message text: No target costs because no price for material & & in currency &



What causes this issue?

Because the company code currency is not the same as the controlling
area currency, the system is attempting to calculate
<DS:GLOS.target_costs>target costs</> in both currencies.
However, the <DS:GLOS.cost_component>cost components</> for the
relevant cost estimate only exist in one currency. The relevant cost
estimate can be one of the following:
The current <DS:GLOS.standard_cost_estimate>standard cost estimate</>
for the material being manufactured
The alternative <DS:GLOS.3526B72BAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>material cost
estimate</> (such as a
<DS:GLOS.3526B75EAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>modified standard cost
estimate</> or <DS:GLOS.3526B71CAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>current cost
estimate</>)
The <DS:GLOS.3526B6D1AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>sales order cost
estimate</>


System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.



How to fix this error?

For the next relevant cost estimate, you can ensure that a
<DS:GLOS.cost_component_split>cost component split</> is generated in
the second currency by activating the
<DS:GLOS.3526B6C3AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>cost component split</> in
controlling area currency. You do this in Customizing for Product Cost
