  The SAP error message "06124 Document contains no items with invoice receipt" typically occurs when you are trying to process an invoice receipt (IR) for a purchase order (PO) that does not have any associated items that can be invoiced. This can happen for several reasons. Here’s a breakdown of the potential causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:
  
  
  No Goods Receipt (GR) Posted: The most common reason for this error is that there has been no goods receipt posted against the purchase order. An invoice receipt can only be processed if there is a corresponding goods receipt.
  
  
  Incorrect Purchase Order: You may be trying to reference a purchase order that does not exist or has been closed.
  
  
  Item Status: The items in the purchase order may have been deleted or are in a status that does not allow for invoicing.
  
  
  Invoice Already Posted: An invoice may have already been posted against the purchase order, and the system does not allow for duplicate invoice receipts.
  
  
  Document Type Restrictions: The document type used for the invoice may not be configured to allow invoice receipts for the specific purchase order.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Goods Receipt: Verify if a goods receipt has been posted for the purchase order. If not, you need to post a goods receipt first.
  
  
  Review Purchase Order: Ensure that you are referencing the correct purchase order and that it is still open for invoicing.
  
  
  Check Item Status: Review the items in the purchase order to ensure they are still valid and have not been deleted or closed.
  
  
  Verify Invoice Posting: Check if an invoice has already been posted against the purchase order. You can do this by reviewing the invoice history for the PO.
  
  
  Document Type Configuration: If you suspect that the document type is causing the issue, consult with your SAP administrator to ensure that the document type is correctly configured to allow invoice receipts.
