3675706 - Error "No billing documents were generated. Please see log" occurs when creating a Billing Document in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public edition

When creating a billing document from a sales order that contains a billing plan, the system issues the error message "No billing documents were generated. Please see log."

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Create a sales document in Create Sales Order that has a billing plan assigned, for example, with billing rules '4' and '5', using billing types FAZ and F2.
2. Attempt to create a pro forma billing document for this sales order using billing type F5 in transaction VF01.
3. The system issues the error message "No billing documents were generated. Please see log."

• The error occurs when attempting to create a billing document with a billing type that is different from the one specified in the billing plan of the original sales document.
• For example, if the billing plan in the sales order is configured for a specific billing type (e.g., milestone billing type), and a different billing document type (e.g., standard pro forma invoice) is created from the sales order using transaction VF01, the system issues the error message "No billing documents were generated. Please see log." due to a mismatch between the billing rules defined in the sales order’s billing plan and the selected billing document type. 

• Ensure that the billing type used in Create Billing Document (VF01) corresponds to the billing type maintained in the billing plan of the source sales order.
• For example, if the billing plan in the sales order is configured with billing type F2, the same billing type (F2) must be used when creating the billing document. Using a different billing type may result in an error such as "No billing documents were generated. Please see log." due to a mismatch between the billing plan configuration and the selected billing type.
