• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKKINV_TEST086 - Billing plan was changed in requested period ?

  The SAP error message FKKINV_TEST086 indicates that there has been a change in the billing plan for a contract or agreement during a period that is currently being processed. This typically occurs in the context of contract accounts receivable and payable (FI-CA) when the system detects that the billing plan has been modified after the billing document has already been created or processed for that period.
  Cause:
  
  Change in Billing Plan: The billing plan for a customer or contract has been altered (e.g., changes in billing frequency, amounts, or dates) after the billing document was generated for the specified period.
  Timing of Changes: The changes made to the billing plan may not align with the billing cycle that is currently being processed, leading to inconsistencies.
  Data Integrity Issues: The system is designed to maintain data integrity, and any changes that conflict with existing billing documents will trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Changes: Check the billing plan changes that were made. Ensure that they are valid and necessary.
  Reprocess Billing: If the billing plan changes are valid, you may need to reverse or delete the existing billing document for the affected period and then reprocess the billing after the changes have been made.
  Adjust Billing Plan: If the changes to the billing plan are not required, consider reverting the billing plan to its previous state before the billing document was generated.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific steps on how to handle billing plan changes in your version of SAP.
  Transaction Codes: Use relevant transaction codes (like FKKINV or FKKMA) to manage billing documents and billing plans.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
  Customizations: If your organization has customizations in the billing process, ensure that these are not causing conflicts with standard SAP behavior.
  Testing: If you are in a testing environment, ensure that the changes made to the billing plan are properly documented and communicated to all relevant stakeholders to avoid confusion during the billing process.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or a consultant who specializes in FI-CA to further investigate the root cause and find a resolution.
