    SAP Error Message:

    VQ212 No entries for business year variant & in T009


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when the system cannot find an entry for the specified business year variant in table T009. The business year variant defines the fiscal year variant used for financial postings, and it must be maintained in customizing.

    • The system is trying to determine the fiscal year variant for a company code or transaction.
    • It looks up the fiscal year variant in table T009 (which stores fiscal year variants and their details).
    • If the fiscal year variant is missing or not maintained properly in T009, the system throws this error.

    Common Causes:

    1. Missing fiscal year variant in T009: The fiscal year variant you are using in your company code or transaction is not maintained in table T009.
    2. Incorrect assignment: The fiscal year variant is not assigned to the company code or the business transaction.
    3. Customizing not completed: The fiscal year variant has not been defined or activated in the system.
    4. Data inconsistency: Sometimes, the fiscal year variant exists but is not properly linked or has inconsistent data.

    How to Check:

    • Go to transaction OB29 (Maintain Fiscal Year Variants).
    • Verify if the fiscal year variant you are using exists and is correctly maintained.
    • Check the assignment of the fiscal year variant to the company code in OB37 or SPRO under Financial Accounting settings.
    • Check table T009 directly via SE16/SE16N to see if the fiscal year variant exists.

    Solution / Resolution:

    1. Maintain the fiscal year variant:
      • Use transaction OB29 to create or maintain the fiscal year variant.
      • Define the number of posting periods and special periods.
    2. Assign fiscal year variant to company code:
      • Use transaction OB37 or via SPRO path:
        Financial Accounting (New) -> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) -> Fiscal Year -> Assign Company Code to Fiscal Year Variant
    3. Check and correct data in T009:
      • If necessary, correct or insert the missing fiscal year variant entries in T009 (usually done via customizing, not direct table edits).
    4. Transport changes if in development system:
      • Make sure changes are transported to the production system.
    5. Re-run the transaction after correction.

    Additional Information:

    • Fiscal Year Variant (FYV): Defines the fiscal year structure, including the number of posting periods and special periods.
    • Table T009: Stores fiscal year variants and their details.
    • This error is common during company code setup or when posting documents for a company code with incomplete fiscal year configuration.
    • Always perform changes in customizing and avoid direct table changes.
