• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHPRC_COD_COMMON045 - No outgoing documents are defined ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHPRC_COD_COMMON045 with the description "No outgoing documents are defined" typically occurs in the context of the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with the management of documents related to compliance or reporting.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when the system is trying to generate or send an outgoing document (such as a report or notification) but cannot find any defined outgoing document types or configurations for the specific process or transaction you are attempting to execute. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Configuration: The outgoing document types may not be configured in the system.
  Incorrect Settings: The settings for the document type may not be correctly defined or linked to the relevant process.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or generate the outgoing documents.
  Data Issues: The data being processed may not meet the criteria for generating the outgoing document.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Document Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the configuration settings for outgoing documents in the EHS module.
  Ensure that the necessary document types are defined and properly configured.
  You can check the configuration in transaction codes like SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object) and navigate to the relevant section for EHS.
  
  
  
  Define Outgoing Document Types:
  
  If no outgoing document types are defined, you will need to create them. This can typically be done in the customizing settings under the EHS area.
  Ensure that the document type is linked to the appropriate processes.
  
  
  
  Review User Authorizations:
  
  Check if the user has the necessary authorizations to create or send outgoing documents. This can be done through transaction SU53 to analyze authorization issues.
  
  
  
  Validate Data:
  
  Ensure that the data you are working with is complete and meets the requirements for generating the outgoing document. Check for any missing or incorrect information.
