• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_PPW869 - No budgets exist for the selected materiasl ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_PPW869 – No budgets exist for the selected materials
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to perform a procurement or planning activity (such as creating a purchase requisition, purchase order, or planning run) for materials that do not have any budget assigned or available in the system. Essentially, the system checks the budget availability for the materials involved, and if no budget exists or the budget master data is missing for those materials, it throws this error.
  Common scenarios causing this error include:  
  
  Budget master data not maintained for the relevant cost centers or funds.  
  Budget periods not defined or budget amounts not entered for the materials or cost objects.  
  Incorrect assignment of materials to budget objects or controlling objects.  
  The budget check configuration is active, but the budget data is incomplete or missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Budget Master Data:  
  
  Verify that budget master data exists for the relevant controlling objects (cost centers, internal orders, funds, etc.) linked to the materials.  
  Use transaction codes like FMBB (Budgeting), FMAVCR01 (Display Budget Availability Control), or FMEDDW (Budget Data Display) to check budget data.
  
  
  
  Maintain Budgets:  
  
  If budgets are missing, create or update the budget master data for the relevant fiscal year and controlling objects.  
  Ensure that the budget amounts are entered and released properly.
  
  
  
  Check Material Assignment:  
  
  Confirm that the materials are correctly assigned to the controlling objects or cost centers that have budgets.  
  Review the account assignment in the purchase requisition or order to ensure it points to the correct cost object.
  
  
  
  Review Budget Availability Control Settings:  
  
  Check the configuration of budget availability control in IMG under Controlling ? Funds Management ? Availability Control.  
  Ensure that the budget check is set up correctly and that the relevant tolerance limits and control indicators are properly configured.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Process:  
  
  After maintaining or correcting the budget data, retry the transaction that caused the error.
