BPS retraction of Quantity in CO OM not retracting at all !

Question

Hi everybody, I post after many and many trials.
I am retracting Primary Costs ( we have planned on CostElements for CO-OM Internal Orders) and I followed the blogs etc. Everything is fine for the Amount and it retracts ok by Posting Period but the quantities are not retracting at all.
I also fixed the Unit as H as suggested because the quantity is in Hours and the R3 system expect that I retract hours for the CostElement related to Cost of Personnell.
I don't move out from this position since long and I should deliver the project in 10 days .
Any help is really really welcome.
I used CCA retractor. This is the Parameter Group

Hi Marc,
first of all my personal compliments because very often I follow your posts .
Your answer let me "smell" the right way . Before to post I already debugged the retraction but at first look, if you don't feel that also somebody else found mistakes you can debug for hours and all looks fine. So this time I debugged with more attention and I found something strange in the Unit of Measures. In R3 the Cost Element expect H as Hours but in the RFC was going the quantity without the Unit of Measure. As I remember also in the blog about retraction the author said to take care about UOM. So I checked better Retraction about UOM and I found a OSS note . Anyway if this thread can be of help, I put here the list of OSS notes to be checked.
The system where I work is always updated but I remember that sometimes especially in some cases where you miss some PIns or for many other reasons, (not good upgrades for example) the system in some part can remain not updated even if there are the proper HP.
If I can help anybody with similar problems if JUST SEARCHING for  LUPREF02 in OSS NOTES you will find many !!!!
