• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB394 - No status profile assined to contract type &1 ?

  The SAP error message:
  W_CB394 No status profile assigned to contract type &1
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs because the system cannot find a status profile assigned to the contract type you are trying to process. In SAP Contract Management (part of Plant Maintenance or Sales and Distribution), each contract type must have an associated status profile that controls the status management (e.g., creation, release, completion statuses) of the contract.
  If no status profile is assigned to the contract type, the system cannot manage the status changes properly, hence the warning.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you need to assign a status profile to the contract type in the customizing settings.
  Steps:
  
  
  Go to SPRO (SAP Reference IMG):
  
  SPRO ? SAP Customizing Implementation Guide ?
  
  Plant Maintenance and Customer Service ?
  
  Contract Management ?
  
  Basic Settings ?
  
  Define Contract Types
  
  
  Assign Status Profile:
  
  In the contract type configuration, assign the appropriate status profile to the contract type you are using.
  
  
  Save and Transport:
  
  Save your changes and transport them if necessary.
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Status Profile: Controls the allowed statuses and status transitions for contracts.
  Contract Type: Defines the characteristics and behavior of contracts in SAP.
  If you are unsure which status profile to assign, check existing contract types or consult your functional consultant.
  This message is a warning (W_), so it may not stop processing but indicates a configuration gap that should be fixed to ensure proper status management.
  
  
  If you want to check or assign the status profile via transaction codes:
  
  Use SPRO for configuration.
  You can also check contract types in transaction OIOA (Define Contract Types).
  Status profiles can be maintained in transaction BS02 (Status Profile Maintenance).
