What causes this issue?

No rate type has been defined for the register in the installation
structure, which means no rate determination is possible. However, data
to determine the (expected) consumption is defined in the rate. Since
the plausibility validations are based on consumption, they could not
be performed in this case.

System Response

Use transaction <DS:TRAN.EG70>Change rate data</> to maintain the rate
type in the installation structure.
