• Message text: No settlement docs. (billing documents) exist for condition record

What causes this issue?

Normally, settlement accounting will not yet have been effected for this
condition record. In certain exceptional cases (e.g. no business volume,
no income) it is possible that the condition record was flagged as
"settled" (inactive) but no settlement document (supplier or customer
billing document) was created.
Please also note that settlement accounting is not carried out for all
condition records that may appear in listings of rebate arrangements,
business volumes etc.
In the case of arrangements requiring periodic settlement, settlement
accounting is only carried out for the main condition record if the
indicator "Final settlement" has been set (Customizing, arrangement
type). Then the total business volume over the arrangement validity
period is applied for the purposes of final settlement.
