• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message NAA558 - Customer settlement &1 is pro-forma document (no provs f. accrued income) ?

  The SAP error message NAA558 indicates that there is an issue with a customer settlement document being treated as a pro-forma document. This typically means that the system is not able to recognize the document as a valid settlement for accrued income, which can lead to issues in financial reporting and revenue recognition.
  Cause:
  
  Pro-forma Document: The document in question is classified as a pro-forma document, which means it is not a final or official document for accounting purposes. Pro-forma documents are often used for estimates or preliminary billing.
  Accrued Income: The system expects a valid document to process accrued income, but since the document is pro-forma, it does not meet the necessary criteria.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that are causing the document to be treated as pro-forma instead of a standard document.
  Document Type: The document type used for the settlement may not be set up correctly to allow for the processing of accrued income.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Document Type: Verify the document type used for the customer settlement. Ensure that it is not set to a pro-forma type if you intend to recognize accrued income.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the SAP system related to customer settlements and document types. Ensure that the settings allow for the processing of standard documents that can recognize accrued income.
  Convert Pro-forma to Standard: If the document is indeed a pro-forma and should not be, consider converting it to a standard document type if applicable.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific configurations and settings that may be affecting the document processing.
  Error Handling: If the issue persists, consider implementing error handling procedures to manage pro-forma documents separately from standard documents.
  
  Related Information:

  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes (e.g., VF01 for billing, FBL5N for customer line items) that may help in reviewing and correcting the document.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user roles and authorizations are set correctly to allow for the necessary changes to document types and configurations.
