3409647 - Can't bill SD documents of type &1 using billing type &2 - S/4HANA Cloud

Symptom

User is unable to invoice sales document type &1 with billing type &2, and facing error message:

VF 002 "Can’t bill SD documents of type &1 using billing type &2"

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open App: Create Billing Documents - VF01
  2. Select: Billing Type (e.g. IG)
  3. Billing Date = Today
  4. Enter Document ID (e.g. with the type CBST (Intercompany Billing for STO)
  5. Press Enter
  6. Check Log and Error Message: (In this example: "Can’t bill SD documents of type CBST using billing type IG")

Cause

For sales document type &1 it is not allowed to create an invoice with billing type &2, because the corresponding copy control settings are not maintained.

Resolution

The system is behaving as designed.

If a certain copying control setting is missing, it either means the process is not supported, or the scope item containing a pre-delivered copying control setting is not yet activated in your SAP S/4HANA System.

  1. For new scope item activation refer to the following process documentation: New Scope Activation - SAP Activate for SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition (3-system landscape), New Scope Item Activation for Manage Your Solution App and New Scope Activation via SAP Central Business Configuration
  2. If the process is not available in best practices, but it is something necessary for your business, please contact your CSM or PE to raise a feature request if needed. See the detailed process in KBA 2963059 - How to Submit Feature Requests for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Product
