  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS108 - No settlement doc type for settl doc list maintained for settl doc type & ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WS108 No settlement doc type for settl doc list maintained for settl doc type &


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs during the settlement process in SAP (e.g., when settling costs from a cost object like a WBS element, internal order, or production order). The system is trying to determine the settlement document type to be used for the settlement document list, but it cannot find a settlement document type maintained for the settlement document list corresponding to the settlement document type configured for the settlement rule.

    In other words, the system expects a mapping between the settlement document type and the settlement document list, but this mapping is missing or incomplete in the configuration.


    Where it occurs:

    • During settlement runs (transaction KO88, CJ88, or similar).
    • When the system tries to create settlement documents and cannot find the appropriate document type for the settlement document list.

    Cause Details:

    • The settlement document type is defined in the settlement rule.
    • The settlement document list is a grouping of settlement documents.
    • The system requires a link between the settlement document type and the settlement document list.
    • If this link is missing, the system throws WS108.

    How to check / verify:

    1. Check Settlement Document Type in Settlement Rule:

      • Go to transaction OKO7 (Define Settlement Document Types).
      • Verify the settlement document type assigned in the settlement rule.
    2. Check Settlement Document List Configuration:

      • Go to transaction OKO8 (Define Settlement Document Lists).
      • Verify if the settlement document type is assigned to a settlement document list.
    3. Check the link between Settlement Document Type and Settlement Document List:

      • In OKO8, ensure that the settlement document type used in the settlement rule is assigned to a settlement document list.

    Solution / Resolution:

    • Maintain the missing assignment:

      • Assign the settlement document type to a settlement document list in transaction OKO8.
      • If no settlement document list exists for the settlement document type, create one and assign the document type to it.
    • Adjust the settlement rule:

      • If the settlement document type is incorrect or not intended, adjust the settlement rule to use a valid settlement document type that is properly assigned.
    • Check customizing consistency:

      • Ensure that all settlement document types used in settlement rules have corresponding entries in the settlement document list configuration.

    Additional Information:

    • Settlement document types control the document type of the accounting documents created during settlement.
    • Settlement document lists group these documents for reporting and processing purposes.
    • Proper configuration is essential for smooth settlement processing.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Message WS108 No settlement doc type for settl doc list maintained for settl doc type &
