• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA_FI071 - Cancellation billing document type &1 does not have application &2 ?

  The SAP error message:
  WRMA_FI071 Cancellation billing document type &1 does not have application &2
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to cancel a billing document, but the billing document type used for cancellation is not properly configured with the required application in the system. Specifically, the billing document type (e.g., for cancellation) does not have the correct Application assigned in the customizing settings.
  In SAP SD (Sales and Distribution), billing document types are linked to specific applications such as:
  
  V1 - Billing
  M1 - Credit Memo
  F2 - Invoice
  etc.
  
  If the cancellation billing document type is missing the application assignment, the system cannot process the cancellation correctly, leading to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Billing Document Type Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SPRO ?
  
  SAP Reference IMG ?
  
  Sales and Distribution ?
  
  Billing ?
  
  Billing Documents ?
  
  Define Billing Types
  
  
  
  Verify the Application Assignment:
  
  Find the billing document type used for cancellation (e.g., RE for credit memo, or a custom type).
  Check the field Application and ensure it is correctly assigned (e.g., V2 for cancellation billing documents).
  
  
  
  Assign the Correct Application:
  
  If the application is missing or incorrect, assign the correct application that corresponds to the billing document type.
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  Test the Cancellation Again:
  
  After correcting the application assignment, try to cancel the billing document again.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  The Application field in billing document types controls how the system processes the document and links it to the correct business process.
  Common applications include:
  
  V1 - Billing
  V2 - Cancellation billing
  M1 - Credit memo
  F2 - Invoice
  
  
  If you have custom billing document types, ensure they are properly configured with the correct application.
  This error is common when custom billing document types are created but not fully configured.
