  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA_CAT112 - Allowed combination of payment type &1 and billing type &2 not maintained ?

    The SAP error message:

    WRMA_CAT112 Allowed combination of payment type &1 and billing type &2 not maintained


    Cause:

    This error occurs in SAP when the system checks the allowed combinations of Payment Type and Billing Type during the processing of a billing document or related transaction (often in the context of Returns Management, Service Management, or Sales Billing). The combination of the payment type (e.g., cash, credit card, invoice) and the billing type (e.g., invoice, credit memo, debit memo) being used is not defined or maintained in the system configuration.

    In other words, SAP expects that for a given billing type, only certain payment types are allowed, and the current combination is missing in the customizing settings.


    Where does this happen?

    • Typically during billing document creation or processing in Sales and Distribution (SD) or Returns Management.
    • It can also occur in Service Management or Contract Billing scenarios where payment and billing types are tightly controlled.

    Solution:

    You need to maintain the allowed combinations of Payment Type and Billing Type in the customizing settings.

    Steps to resolve:

    1. Identify the Payment Type and Billing Type:

      • From the error message, note the values of &1 (Payment Type) and &2 (Billing Type).
      • You can check the billing document or transaction to confirm these values.
    2. Maintain Allowed Combinations:

      • Go to SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG):
        SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Documents -> Maintain Allowed Combinations of Payment Type and Billing Type
      • Or the path might be:
        SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Documents -> Define Allowed Combinations of Payment Type and Billing Type
      • In some systems, this is under:
        SPRO -> Customer Service -> Service Processing -> Billing -> Define Allowed Combinations of Payment Type and Billing Type
      • Add the missing combination of payment type & billing type.
    3. Save and Test:

      • After maintaining the combination, save the configuration.
      • Retry the billing or transaction to confirm the error is resolved.

    Additional Information:

    • Payment Type: Defines how the customer will pay (e.g., cash, credit card, invoice).
    • Billing Type: Defines the type of billing document (e.g., invoice, credit memo).
    • The system uses these combinations to control valid business processes and prevent inconsistent or unsupported document flows.
    • If you are unsure about which combinations to allow, consult your business process owners or check existing valid combinations for similar scenarios.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WRMA_CAT112 Allowed combination of payment type &1 and billing type &2 not maintained
    Cause Missing configuration for allowed payment type and billing type combination
    Solution Maintain the allowed combinations in SPRO under Billing Documents configuration
    Transaction SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Billing -> Billing Documents -> Allowed Combinations
