2668268 - WBS Element cannot be assigned to a sales document

Symptom

  1. Create a project/WBS element via the app "Project Control" of type "Project with Revenue."
    When later trying to assign this WBS element to a sales order item, the system prevents the account assignment with the following message:
    • "This WBS element cannot be assigned.
      Message no. V2515"
      Or
    • "No WBS billing element found.
      Message no. VF156"
  2. When trying to assign this WBS element to a Sales Inquiry, Sales Quotation, or Sales Contract, the system throws the following message:
    • "You cannot assign this WBS element to this sales document type.
      Message no. V2509"
      Or
    • "User Status INIT is active.
      Message no. BS014"

Environment

  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

This is the expected behaviour in relation to this process.

Resolution

  1. Only the billing WBS element can be account assigned to the sales order items.
    If you try to assign a non-billing element to a sales order item, error V2515 will pop up.
    Refer to the following documentation:
  2. In sales documents, you can assign these billing WBS elements to your sales document items.
    In this scenario, Sales Inquiry, Sales Quotation, and Sales Contract are not supported.
    You can do so for the following sales document categories:
    • Sales orders
    • Customer returns
    • Sales orders without charge
    • Credit memo requests
    • Debit memo requests

Refer to the following documentation:
