  Error Message
  WRF_BUDGET011: The application ID is not OTB
  
  Cause
  This error typically occurs in SAP Budgeting and Funds Management (FM) or related modules when a transaction or process expects the Application ID to be OTB (Open to Budget), but the system finds a different or incorrect Application ID.
  
  Application ID in SAP FM refers to the type of budget application or budget type.
  The error indicates that the system is checking for an Application ID with the value OTB, but the current Application ID does not match this expected value.
  This can happen if:
  
  The budget document or budget master data is assigned an incorrect Application ID.
  The configuration or customizing for budget application types is incorrect or incomplete.
  The transaction or process is being run in a context where the Application ID should be OTB but is not set properly.
  There is a mismatch between the budget version or budget type and the expected Application ID.
  
  
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error WRF_BUDGET011, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Application ID in the Budget Document or Master Data:
  
  Verify the Application ID assigned to the budget document or budget master data.
  Ensure that it is set to OTB if the process requires it.
  
  
  
  Review Customizing Settings:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Public Sector Management ? Funds Management ? Budgeting ? Define Application IDs.
  Confirm that the Application ID OTB is correctly defined and assigned to the relevant budget types.
  Check if the budget version or budget type you are working with is linked to the Application ID OTB.
  
  
  
  Check the Transaction or Process Context:
  
  Identify the transaction or process triggering the error.
  Ensure that the process is designed to work with Application ID OTB.
  If you are using a custom program or report, verify that the Application ID parameter is correctly set.
  
  
  
  Correct the Application ID:
  
  If the Application ID is incorrect in the budget document, correct it to OTB.
  If the budget document is already posted, you may need to reverse and repost with the correct Application ID.
