    Error Message

    WRF_BUDGET118: Maintain the planning table for budget type &1 in Customizing


    Cause

    This error occurs because the system expects a planning table configuration for the specified budget type (represented by &1 in the message) in the SAP Customizing settings, but it is missing or incomplete.

    In SAP Budgeting and Funds Management, planning tables define how budget data is planned, entered, and processed. If the planning table for a particular budget type is not maintained, the system cannot proceed with budget planning or related transactions.


    When does it occur?

    • During budget planning or budget entry transactions.
    • When you try to execute a process that requires budget planning data for a specific budget type.
    • When the system checks for the existence of planning tables for the budget type and finds none.

    Solution

    You need to maintain the planning table for the budget type in SAP Customizing. Follow these steps:

    1. Go to SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG):

      • Transaction: SPRO
      • Navigate to:
        Public Sector Management ? Funds Management ? Budgeting ? Planning ? Maintain Planning Tables
    2. Maintain Planning Table:

      • Select the relevant budget type (the one mentioned in the error message).
      • Define or adjust the planning table settings as required.
      • Save your entries.
    3. Verify Budget Type Configuration:

      • Ensure that the budget type is correctly configured in the system.
      • Check if the budget type is active and assigned to the relevant controlling area or funds management area.
    4. Test the Process Again:

      • After maintaining the planning table, retry the transaction or process that caused the error.

    Additional Information

    • Budget Type: This is a key element in Funds Management that defines the nature of the budget (e.g., original budget, supplementary budget).
    • Planning Table: It controls how budget data is planned and entered, including layout, fields, and planning levels.
    • Customizing Path: The exact path may vary slightly depending on your SAP version and module (e.g., Public Sector Management or Funds Management).
