Explanation
Business Partner (D) and Contract Account (A) are the two master data objects that act as shared anchors across all three systems - SOM creates the subscription, FI-CA handles billing/accounting, and Convergent Charging performs rating; all three must reference the same Business Partner (who the customer is) and Contract Account (the billing relationship entity) to stay in sync.
Price Plan (B) is incorrect because it lives exclusively within SAP Convergent Charging as a rating configuration object - it defines how usage is priced but is not propagated as a shared contract object to SOM or FI-CA.
Charge Plan (C) is similarly Convergent Charging-specific; it groups and schedules charges internally within the charging engine and is not surfaced as a shared provider contract object across the other two components.
Memory tip: Think of the two correct answers as the "WHO and WHERE" pair - Business Partner = who the customer is, Contract Account = where the money goes. Every system in the billing chain needs to agree on the customer and their account, making these the natural shared keys.
