What causes this issue?

No Expense Type has been maintained for a Fund Assignment in this
transaction.
Usually the allowed Expense Types are determined automatically from
Customizing depending on the Transaction Type used. A default Expense
Type is then inserted automatically from the system. In your case either
no Expense Types are maintained for the current Transaction Type used
(this can be done in table CRMC_CLA_EXPTYPE) or the assigned Expense
Type has been removed manually.

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?

Maintain an Expense Type through selecting one from the drop down list.
Please note that the field "Expense Type" may be hidden in the current
UI configuration (it can be brought to the screen using the
"Personalize" button in the header of the particular Assignment Block).
If there are no Expense Types offered in the drop down list the desired
possible Expense Types need to be assigned in the Customizing for the
particular Transaction Type used (table CRMC_CLA_EXPTYPE).
