• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BORGR803 - Goods receipt was processed via VL; post via VL ?

  The SAP error message BORGR803 indicates that a goods receipt (GR) was processed through the transaction VL (which typically refers to the delivery processing transactions) and that the system is prompting you to post the goods receipt via the same transaction (VL) instead of using a different transaction like MIGO.
  Cause:
  This error usually occurs when there is an attempt to post a goods receipt for a delivery that has already been processed through the delivery transaction (VL). The system is designed to ensure that the goods receipt is consistent with the delivery process, and it restricts posting through other transactions to maintain data integrity.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should follow these steps:
  
  
  Use the Correct Transaction: Instead of trying to post the goods receipt through MIGO or another transaction, you should complete the goods receipt using the VL transaction. This is typically done through the following steps:
  
  Go to transaction VL02N (Change Outbound Delivery) or VL01N (Create Outbound Delivery) depending on your needs.
  Find the relevant delivery document.
  Process the goods receipt from there.
  
  
  
  Check Delivery Status: Ensure that the delivery status is appropriate for posting a goods receipt. If the delivery has already been fully processed, you may need to check if any further actions are required.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If you believe that the error is occurring incorrectly, review the configuration settings in your SAP system related to goods receipt processing and delivery. Ensure that the settings align with your business processes.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on handling goods receipts and deliveries.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide more tailored assistance.
