  The SAP error message FKKBIX_BIP097 indicates that there is an issue with changing billing plans in the system. Specifically, it states that changing from one billing plan type to another (from type &1 to type &2) is not allowed in the dialog. This typically occurs in the context of billing documents or contracts where specific billing plan types are defined.
  Cause:
  
  Billing Plan Restrictions: The system has predefined rules that restrict changing billing plan types during certain processes. This is often due to the nature of the billing plans, which may have different conditions, terms, or structures.

  Solution:
  
  Check Document Status: Ensure that the billing document or contract is in a status that allows for changes. If it is already processed, you may need to reverse or cancel the document before making changes.
  Review Billing Plan Types: Understand the differences between the billing plan types involved. If a change is necessary, consider whether it is possible to create a new billing document or contract with the desired billing plan type instead of changing the existing one.
  Consult Configuration: If you believe that the change should be allowed, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to billing plans. They may need to adjust the configuration to permit such changes.
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use transaction codes like VF02 (Change Billing Document) or VA02 (Change Sales Order) to check the details of the document and see if there are any options available for changing the billing plan.
