Class for order classification has not been generated

Message no. KU363

Diagnosis
To be able to classify orders for order selection or order summarization in the information system for Cost Object Controlling, you must first:
•    select the characteristics that are active in your system
•    generate the characteristics that you selected
•    generate the class in which these characteristics are to be included
You do this in Customizing under Choose and generate characteristics.

Procedure
Go into Customizing and process the step Choose and generate characteristics.

Proposed Solution

You have two options to resolve the problem depending on your business
requirement in Controlling:

1) If you required classification in controlling, you need to generate
class SAP_KKR_CLASS via OKQ3.

2) If you don’t require classification in controlling, you could
deactivate ‘Classification’ indicator for the order type via OPJH.

Independently of the cost center structure, internal orders collect the plan and actual costs incurred, enabling you to control the costs continuously.
