Please create material master data with numbers A001, A002, B001, B002, P001, P002, and P003 for Basic View and Sales Views by using below given parameters before running process. Materials A001, A002, B001, B002 are used for billing scenarios with payment on account and additional billing item(s).

Materials P001, P002, and P003 are used when you create billing items with different types of billing contacts (Fixed Price, Time and Expense / Usage-based Item, and Periodic Services).
