SAP Message UCF1005 - Method step &1: Check your customizing (iteration problem)

Diagnosis
At this time, the Customizing settings for method step "&V1&" are setso that all receivers serve as senders again. Executing an allocationmay produce worthless results because the senders cannot be depleted(the iteration is not convergent).

System Response
This is only a warning. You can still save the method for theallocation.

Procedure

  • In the Customizing of the method, set the indicator
  • Deactivate Iteration, or
    • Try to limit the sender definition as much as possible to avoid this
    • situation (see following examples).

      Example 1:

      Customizing
      ,,Sender,,Receiver,,Trigger
      Cost
      Center,,,,[ ] 100-200,,,,
      Cost,,,,,,,,
      Element,,= 300000,,= 300000,,[ ] 100000-200000,,

      Effect
      The definition of the sender is not further delimited: Nothing isspecified for the sender cost centers, meaning that all cost centersare sender cost centers. Therefore, all existing receiver cost centerscan serve as senders again. The allocation would not lead to ameaningful result (regardless of how the distribution key is defined).

      Example 2:

      Customizing
      ,,Sender,,Receiver,,Trigger
      Cost
      Center,,[ ] 0-100,,[ ] 100-200,,,,
      Cost,,,,,,,,
      Element,,= 300000,,= 300000,,[ ] 100000-200000,,

      Effect
      Only a portion of the receiver cost centers (cost center 100) servesalso as senders. This allocation produces meaningful results, assumingthat the distribution is defined so that less than 50% is allocated toreceiver cost center 100.
