How To Fix FARR_RAI215 - Item &1: Item excluded from processing

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FARR_RAI - Revenue Accounting Item

• Message number: 215

• Message text: Item &1: Item excluded from processing

What causes this issue?

Usually, only order revenue accounting items (RAIs) with the highest
timestamp are processed during RAI processing. The outdated RAIs are
ignored.
However, order RAIs which either contain a deletion indicator, or for
which a field in the structure <AB>FARR_S_RAI_RESCUE </>has a different
value with a higher timestamp<(>,<)> cannot be ignored during RAI
processing, even if a RAI with a higher timestamp exists. In these
exceptional cases, the outdated RAI is processed, and all RAIs with
higher timestamps are excluded from processing and keep a processable
status.
The current RAI has been excluded from processing due to one of the
following reasons:
The RAI with the same key, but with a lower timestamp, contained a
deletion indicator.
The RAI with the same key, but with a lower timestamp, contained at
least one field for which a different value with a higher timestamp
exists in the structure <AB>FARR_S_RAI_RESCUE.</>
You have set an <ZK>End Date of Usage </>for an accounting principle.
The RAI with the same key, but with lower timestamp, was processed
before reaching this <ZK>End Date of Usage</>.

System Response

Item &v1& has not been processed.
The RAI will be processed with the next processing run.

How to fix this error?
