  SAP Error Message:
  VPK1107 - There is no billing plan for WBS element &1 (simulation version &2)
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to perform a billing simulation or create a billing document for a WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) element, but there is no billing plan maintained or assigned for that WBS element in the system for the specified simulation version.
  In other words, the system expects a billing plan to exist for the WBS element to determine the billing schedule, amounts, and dates, but it cannot find one.
  
  Explanation:
  
  WBS Element: A component of a project structure used in SAP Project System (PS) to manage and control project costs and revenues.
  Billing Plan: Defines the schedule and amounts for billing a customer. It can be milestone-based or periodic.
  Simulation Version: Used in billing to simulate billing documents without affecting actual data.
  
  The billing plan is essential for billing processes in projects because it controls when and how much to bill for the work done on the WBS element.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check if a Billing Plan Exists for the WBS Element:
  
  Go to the project system module.
  Navigate to the WBS element in question.
  Check if a billing plan is assigned to the WBS element.
  
  
  
  Create or Assign a Billing Plan:
  
  If no billing plan exists, create one.
  You can create a billing plan in transaction CJ20N (Project Builder) or via the billing plan maintenance transactions.
  Assign the billing plan to the WBS element.
  
  
  
  Verify the Simulation Version:
  
  Ensure that the simulation version you are using is correct and active.
  Sometimes, the simulation version might not be maintained or might be incorrect.
  
  
  
  Check Billing Plan Status:
  
  Make sure the billing plan is active and valid for the billing date.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Billing Simulation:
  
  After assigning or correcting the billing plan, try the billing simulation or billing document creation again.
