    Error Message

    WS_INTRASTAT027: No relevant billing type found for the given selection criteria


    Cause

    This error occurs during the Intrastat report generation in SAP when the system cannot find any billing document types that match the selection criteria specified for the Intrastat report.

    Intrastat reporting requires the system to identify billing documents (sales invoices, credit memos, etc.) that are relevant for Intrastat declarations. The system uses configuration settings that link billing document types to Intrastat transaction types.

    If no billing document types are assigned or the selection criteria exclude all billing types, the system cannot find any relevant billing documents to process, resulting in this error.


    Common Reasons

    1. Missing or incorrect configuration in the Intrastat transaction type assignment:

      • Billing document types are not assigned to Intrastat transaction types in the customizing.
    2. Selection criteria too restrictive:

      • The date range, billing types, or other filters exclude all billing documents.
    3. No billing documents exist for the selected criteria:

      • There are simply no billing documents in the system that match the selection.

    Solution

    1. Check Intrastat Transaction Type Assignment:

      • Go to SAP Customizing (SPRO) ? Logistics Execution ? Foreign Trade/Customs ? Intrastat ? Basic Settings ? Define Transaction Types for Intrastat.
      • Verify that the billing document types used in your company (e.g., F2 for invoice, G2 for credit memo) are assigned to the correct Intrastat transaction types.
      • If missing, assign the relevant billing document types to the Intrastat transaction types.
    2. Review Selection Criteria:

      • When running the Intrastat report, check the selection parameters.
      • Ensure the date range is correct and includes billing documents.
      • Check if any billing types or transaction types are selected that might exclude all documents.
      • Try broadening the selection criteria to include more billing types or a wider date range.
    3. Verify Billing Documents:

      • Check if billing documents exist for the selected period and criteria.
      • Use transaction VF03 or report VF05 to list billing documents.
      • If no billing documents exist, the error is expected.
    4. Additional Checks:

      • Ensure that the billing documents have the necessary data for Intrastat (e.g., country of destination, commodity codes).
      • Check if the Intrastat indicator is set correctly in the billing documents.
