    SAP Error Message:

    WS_INTRASTAT022 - Business transaction type not found for document &1, item &2


    Cause:

    This error occurs during the Intrastat reporting process when the system cannot find a valid Business Transaction Type (BTT) for the specified document and item. The Business Transaction Type is essential for Intrastat declarations as it classifies the nature of the transaction (e.g., sale, purchase, return).

    The root causes typically include:

    • The Business Transaction Type is not maintained or assigned in the system for the combination of the document type and item category.
    • Missing or incorrect configuration in the Intrastat customizing.
    • The document/item in question does not have a valid or recognized transaction type for Intrastat purposes.
    • The relevant customizing tables for Intrastat (e.g., transaction type determination) are incomplete or inconsistent.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Intrastat Customizing:

      • Go to transaction SPRO ? Logistics General ? Foreign Trade/Customs ? Intrastat ? Basic Settings ? Define Business Transaction Types.
      • Verify that the Business Transaction Types are correctly defined.
    2. Assign Business Transaction Types:

      • Ensure that the Business Transaction Type is assigned to the relevant document types and item categories.
      • This is usually done in the customizing path:
        • Logistics General ? Foreign Trade/Customs ? Intrastat ? Basic Settings ? Assign Business Transaction Types to Document Types and Item Categories.
    3. Verify Document and Item Data:

      • Check the document number (&1) and item number (&2) mentioned in the error.
      • Confirm that the document type and item category are correctly maintained and that they correspond to a valid Business Transaction Type.
    4. Maintain Transaction Type Determination:

      • Use transaction OBXD or the relevant customizing to maintain the determination of Business Transaction Types based on sales/purchase document types and item categories.
    5. Check Intrastat Reporting Setup:

      • Ensure that the Intrastat reporting setup is complete and consistent.
      • Run transaction WSINTRASTAT or the relevant Intrastat report to verify if the error persists.
    6. Reprocess the Document:

      • After correcting the customizing, try to reprocess the document for Intrastat reporting.
