  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA_FI005 - Table &2 does not have an entry for BI condition type &1 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WRMA_FI005 Table &2 does not have an entry for BI condition type &1


    Cause:

    This error occurs during the processing of billing or invoice documents in SAP, specifically when the system tries to find a corresponding entry in a customizing table for a given Billing Interface (BI) condition type but fails to find it.

    • The system expects a mapping or configuration entry in a specific table (represented by &2) for the billing condition type (represented by &1).
    • This usually happens in the context of Revenue Accounting and Reporting (RAR) or Contract Accounting (FI-CA) integration with billing.
    • The missing entry means that the system cannot determine how to handle the condition type for financial posting or interface purposes.

    Typical Scenario:

    • You are processing billing documents or revenue recognition.
    • The system tries to find the condition type in a customizing table (e.g., a mapping table between billing condition types and FI posting keys or revenue recognition keys).
    • The entry is missing, so the system throws this error.

    Common Tables Involved:

    • The table name (&2) varies depending on the context but often includes:
      • VBRK/VBRP (billing document header/item)
      • T683F (condition types for revenue recognition)
      • Custom mapping tables for condition types to FI postings or revenue keys.

    Solution:

    1. Identify the missing entry:

      • Check the error message details to find the exact table (&2) and condition type (&1).
      • Use transaction codes like SE16/SE16N or SM30 to view the table contents.
    2. Maintain the missing entry:

      • Go to the relevant customizing transaction or table maintenance view.
      • Add the missing entry for the condition type in the specified table.
      • For example, if the error relates to revenue recognition, maintain the condition type in the revenue recognition customizing (e.g., transaction RAR1 or IMG path for Revenue Accounting).
    3. Verify condition type configuration:

      • Ensure that the billing condition type is correctly configured for integration with FI or RAR.
      • Check IMG paths such as:
        • Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Revenue Recognition
        • Financial Accounting ? Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable ? Billing Integration
    4. Check OSS Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to the error message or your specific scenario.
      • Sometimes SAP provides patches or detailed instructions for missing customizing entries.
    5. Test after correction:

      • After maintaining the missing entry, reprocess the billing or revenue recognition to confirm the error is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • This error is common in scenarios involving Revenue Accounting and Reporting (RAR) or Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) integration.
    • It highlights the importance of complete and consistent customizing for billing condition types.
    • Always ensure that any new billing condition types introduced are properly mapped in all relevant customizing tables.
    • If you are unsure about the correct entries, consult your functional consultant or SAP documentation for the specific module.

    Summary:
