• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WAB045 - All Org. Data only possible with settlement partner <> "Standard" ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WAB045 – All Org. Data only possible with settlement partner <> "Standard"
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) element or Project System (PS) module when you try to maintain or settle organizational data for a WBS element that is assigned to the "Standard" settlement rule (i.e., the settlement rule with the settlement partner set as "Standard"). The system restricts the use of "All Organizational Data" settlement option when the settlement partner is set to "Standard".
  In other words, the system expects that if you want to settle to all organizational data (meaning multiple receivers or organizational units), the settlement partner must be explicitly defined and cannot be the default "Standard" partner.
  
  Explanation
  
  Settlement Partner: This is the receiver of the settlement (costs, revenues) from the WBS element.
  Standard Settlement Partner: A default or generic partner used in settlement rules.
  All Organizational Data: A setting that allows settlement to multiple organizational units or receivers.
  
  The error arises because the system logic enforces that when settling to multiple organizational units (all org data), the settlement partner must be explicitly defined and cannot be the generic "Standard" partner.
  
  Solution
  
  
  Change the Settlement Partner  
  
  Go to the settlement rule of the WBS element.
  Replace the settlement partner from "Standard" to a specific organizational unit or receiver.
  This means you must define a valid settlement receiver (e.g., cost center, internal order, asset, etc.) instead of the generic "Standard".
  
  
  
  Adjust Settlement Rule  
  
  If you want to settle to all organizational data, ensure that the settlement rule is set up with the correct settlement partner(s) that represent the organizational units.
  Use transaction CJ02 (Change WBS element) ? Settlement rule tab ? Maintain settlement rule ? Specify correct settlement receivers.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration  
  
  In some cases, the system configuration for settlement profiles or rules might need adjustment to allow the intended settlement behavior.
  Verify the settlement profile and rules in SPRO under Project System ? Costs ? Settlement.
