  Error Message
  WS822 - No FI document split possible
  
  Cause
  This error occurs during the posting of financial documents when the system tries to perform document splitting but cannot find the necessary configuration or data to split the FI document according to the document splitting rules.
  Document splitting is a functionality in SAP FI that allows automatic splitting of accounting documents according to certain characteristics (e.g., segment, profit center, business area) to ensure balanced reporting at a more granular level.
  The main causes for this error include:
  
  
  Missing or incomplete document splitting configuration:
  
  Document splitting is activated, but the splitting rules or characteristics are not properly maintained.
  The document splitting rules do not cover the combination of account types or line items in the document.
  
  
  
  Missing assignment of document splitting characteristics:
  
  The line items do not have the required characteristics (e.g., segment, profit center) needed for splitting.
  The system cannot determine how to split the document because the required fields are empty or not maintained.
  
  
  
  Incompatible account types or line items:
  
  Certain account types or line items are excluded from splitting, or the document contains line items that cannot be split.
  
  
  
  Customizing issues:
  
  Document splitting is active in company code settings, but the document splitting rules are not maintained in IMG (Implementation Guide).
  
  
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the WS822 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Document Splitting Activation:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? General Ledger Accounting ? Business Transactions ? Document Splitting ? Activate Document Splitting.
  Verify if document splitting is active for the company code.
  
  
  
  Review Document Splitting Rules:
  
  In SPRO, navigate to Financial Accounting ? General Ledger Accounting ? Business Transactions ? Document Splitting ? Define Document Splitting Characteristics and Rules.
  Ensure that the document splitting rules are properly defined for the relevant account types and line items.
  Check if the splitting characteristics (e.g., segment, profit center) are assigned correctly.
  
  
  
  Maintain Splitting Characteristics in Master Data:
  
  Ensure that the master data (e.g., cost centers, profit centers, segments) are maintained and assigned to the relevant line items.
  For example, if splitting is based on profit center, make sure profit centers are assigned to the GL accounts or cost centers involved.
  
  
  
  Check Line Item Data:
  
  Verify that the document line items contain the necessary characteristics for splitting.
  If characteristics are missing, update the document or master data accordingly.
  
  
  
  Adjust Document Splitting Rules if Necessary:
  
  If certain account types or line items should not be split, adjust the rules to exclude them.
  Alternatively, modify the rules to cover all necessary account types.
  
  
  
  Test Posting:
  
  After making the necessary configuration changes, test the posting again to confirm the error is resolved.
