How To Fix WRMA_CAT021 - No reference data found for check of negative balances

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WRMA_CAT - RMA cost allocation

• Message number: 021

• Message text: No reference data found for check of negative balances

What causes this issue?

In the BW system, a check of negative balances is flagged in
customizing. The purpose of this is that the reference data for RMA
valuation levels (combinations of plants and RMA objects), with negative
balances (for example, negative stock) are reset to zero, and therefore
those RMA valuation levels do not receive a portion of the cost alloc
ation. The system knows that for the given RMA valuation levels, no
reference data are available in BW for carrying out this check of
negative balances.

System Response

Cost allocation is not carried out.

How to fix this error?

Check the general settings for RMA in the BW system. There, the InfoCube
is specified which serves as a basis for the check of negative balances.
Check if data have been uploaded to that InfoCube.

Procedure for System Administrators
