  The SAP error message CRM_FS_TQ_PROC024, which states "There is no preceding document for the current document &1," typically occurs in the context of SAP CRM (Customer Relationship Management) when a user attempts to process a document that requires a preceding document, but such a document does not exist.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Preceding Document: The most common cause of this error is that the document you are trying to process (e.g., a follow-up document like a quotation, order, or service request) does not have a corresponding preceding document (e.g., a lead or opportunity).
  Incorrect Document Flow: The document flow may not be correctly established, meaning that the system cannot find the necessary prior document that should exist in the workflow.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be data entry errors where the document was not created or saved properly, leading to the absence of the expected preceding document.

  Create the Preceding Document: If the preceding document does not exist, create it as required. For example, if you are trying to create a sales order, ensure that the corresponding quotation or opportunity is created first.
  Review Data Entry: Double-check the data entry for any mistakes that might have led to the document not being saved or linked properly.
  Consult Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to review the settings related to document processing and ensure that they are set up correctly.
