  SAP Error Message: WAB030
  Message Text:
  
  Settlement partner category & only with price determination Supplier-Side
  
  Cause
  This error occurs during the settlement process in SAP when the system detects that the Settlement Partner Category is set in a way that requires price determination on the supplier side, but the current configuration or master data does not support this.
  More specifically:
  
  The settlement partner category assigned to the partner in the settlement rule or contract requires that the price determination be done on the supplier side.
  However, the system finds that the price determination is not set up or allowed for the supplier side in the current context.
  This mismatch causes the system to throw the WAB030 error.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During settlement of production orders, process orders, or other internal orders where settlement rules involve partners.
  When the settlement partner category is set to a value that implies price determination should happen on the supplier side.
  If the pricing procedure or condition records are not maintained or configured for the supplier side.
  If the settlement rule or partner assignment is incorrect or incomplete.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Settlement Partner Category:
  
  Go to the settlement rule or partner assignment in the order.
  Verify the settlement partner category assigned.
  Ensure that the category is appropriate for the business scenario.
  
  
  
  Verify Price Determination Settings:
  
  Check if price determination is enabled for the supplier side.
  This involves checking the pricing procedure, condition types, and condition records.
  Make sure that the pricing procedure assigned to the supplier side is maintained and active.
  
  
  
  Adjust Settlement Partner Category or Pricing Setup:
  
  If the business process requires price determination on the supplier side, ensure all pricing data and procedures are correctly maintained.
  If price determination on the supplier side is not intended, change the settlement partner category to one that does not require supplier-side price determination.
  
  
  
  Master Data and Configuration:
  
  Check the master data of the settlement partner (e.g., vendor or supplier master).
  Verify that the partner is correctly set up for pricing and settlement.
  Review configuration in transaction codes like OKO7 (Settlement profile), V/08 (Pricing procedure), or related customizing.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes and Documentation:
  
  Sometimes, specific SAP Notes address this error with patches or detailed instructions.
