Error no WBS billing element found while substituting WBS element

Hi All

I am getting the following error

"Error no WBS billing element found while substituting WBS element" . this topic has been discussed multiple times and i have gone through each and every thread on SCN and i went through the OSS Note 672929 as well but still getting this error while creating F2 and IV billing is working fine. And in my scenario there are no networks.

We have 2 COCds 1000 and 2000 and 2 plants PLT1 and PLT2 assigned to CoCds 1000 and 2000 respectively

We have created 2 projects one per CoCd and each project has 2 WBS elements. for example in CoCd 1000 WEBS element WBSlevel2 is assigned to WBS element WBSLevel1 and WBS element WBSLevel1 is assigned to project PRJ1. and same thing with project created for CoCd 2000.i Have checked the Billing element flag on all the WBS elements created and i have maintained corresponding assignments in the assignment tab.

CO area is the same

PRJ1-->WBSLevel1-->WBSlevel2

CO area 1000 ;CoCd 1000 ; Plant PLT1

PRJ1-->WBSL1-->WBSL2

CO area 1000 ;CoCd 2000 ; Plant PLT2

I created a SO in Sales area 1000/10/10 which is assigned to CoCd 1000 and added a line item. In the account assignment tab of the line item i maintained WBS element WBSLEVEL2 The plant on this line item is PLT2 so this qualifies for an inter company. I delivery the line items and in F2 billing i get this error where as when i create an IV billing it works fine.

When i refer the OSS note 672929 ,the solution is "define a higher-level billing element for the selling company code in your network" but here in my projects i do not have nay networks defined. So please guide me to fix this issue

Note: I was able to create F2 but could not create an IV once F2 is created. So i can create either F2 or IV not both and i get the above error when i try to create the second one
