FAQ-Tips and Tricks RRB

This document provides tips, tricks, common errors and explanations for resource related billing (RRB) in SAP. It includes links to documentation and tips for checking DIP profile consistency, confirming items individually, simulating billing requests, ensuring planned/actual costs are on service orders, and putting breakpoints in specific functions to debug DP90 problems. Useful OSS notes are also listed to help troubleshoot common errors with material determination, expenditure items not found, and CO configuration issues.

There is an excellent PDF document for RRB that you can download from SAPSERVE
(see OSS Note 301117).

Tips & Tricks

a. Check your DIP Profile consistency via TCode ODP2 or ODP2A (later versions
only)
b. Try confirming one item at a time (ie labour, material or GR/GI)
c. Create a billing request (DMR) manually via TCode VA01 and add the material
that should have been determined via DP90. This will check that the sales order
and material master data is correct.
d. You can simulate creating billing requests in DP90 via menu: Goto->Simulate
sales....
e. Ensure that your blank-entry for material determination in the DIP profile is the
last entry
f. Ensure you have planned/actual costs on the service order (Cost tab)
g. Ensure your SOURCES are correct in the DIP Profile
h. Put a break-point in function module AD15_DLIS_FOR_OBJECTS_READ to
debug DP90 problems. Check LT_DLIA for the number of summarisation lines to
be created in DP90.
i. Put a break-point in function module AD15_MATERIAL_DETERMINATION to
debug DP90 problems
j. Put a break-point in function module AD12_ATTR_COVP to debug DP90
problems
k. Check the material origin flag is set in the Costing 1 tab on the material
l. Dynamically determine DIP Profile: Use user-exit IWO10009 with field-symbols
to import (SAPLCOI3)gt_pmsdo[], Then use function module
PMSDO_SAVE_DB to save new value
m. Individual materials for the multiple confirmations with the same data: ensure the
document number is flagged in the characteristic view
n. See OSS Note 350320 to delete saved DIP data
o. External services and DP90 - see here
p. If you are using planned costs in RRB, then these costs are agregated into groups
in tables COSS, COSP, etc. This means that, as standard, you cannot use the
summarising/individual functions of the DIP Processor. An example would be if
you planned the same material twice; this is stored in COSP as a single record
with the combined price of both materials. The DIP processor reads this data and
does not "know" it is two seperate materials. All is not lost, you can utilise the
RRB user-exits to rectify the problem.

Common Errors

AD01-155: Error during material determination for sales document item. Material Origin
field was not checked in the Costing tab of the material master.

IX-057: No cost management is provided for sales document (contract) item. This is
usually because there is no requirements type assigned to the contract item (see
procurement tab).

No material appears in DMR/CMR. In the material master costing view, set the "Material
Origin" checkbox (see OSS note 174382)

No expenditure item found.

• Go back to the service order and check there are actual costs
• Check your DIP Profile; specifically the sources section to ensure you are not
filtering out any dynamic items.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CO Configuration:
1. KL03: Check activity type validity dates
2. KA03: Check cost element validity dates
3. KA03: For labour, check cost element category is 43
4. KA03: Check if Record qty flag is set on Indicators tab
5. KA03: Check cost element assigned to your controlling area
6. KP26: Check that activity type is linked to cost centre
7. KP26: Check that there is a rate for the activity type/cost centre
8. KP26: Check are you using the correct version
