SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: TU - Billing/Scheduling/Budget Billing

• Message number: 172

• Message text: Schedule records still exist for meter reading unit &1

What causes this issue?

You are processing a meter reading unit that is not allocated to
<DS:GLOS.6CA4BB5E441ED311A1190060B0673A17>dynamic scheduling</>. Note
that either both the portion and the corresponding meter reading units
must be allocated to dynamic scheduling, or neither the portion nor its
meter reading units must be allocated to dynamic scheduling.
Therefore, you can only enter a portion that is allocated to dynamic
scheduling if the meter reading unit is also allocated to dynamic
scheduling. This is only possible if no more schedule records exist for
the meter reading unit.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Delete all the schedule records of the meter reading unit first. Note
that meter reading orders may already have been created for these
schedule records.
Once you have deleted the schedule records, you can enter the new
portion. When you do this, the reference to dynamic scheduling is
established automatically.
