• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E0081 - EDI: Insert w/o check (error assigning IDoc number) ?

  The SAP error message E0081, which states "EDI: Insert w/o check (error assigning IDoc number)," typically occurs when there is an issue with the IDoc number assignment during the processing of an IDoc (Intermediate Document) in the EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) interface. This error can arise due to various reasons, including configuration issues, database inconsistencies, or problems with the IDoc processing logic.
  Causes:
  
  IDoc Number Range Issues: The number range for IDocs may not be properly configured or may be exhausted. Each IDoc requires a unique number, and if the system cannot assign one, this error can occur.
  Database Locking: There may be database locks or contention issues that prevent the IDoc number from being assigned.
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration in the EDI settings or IDoc processing settings can lead to this error.
  System Performance Issues: High system load or performance issues can also lead to delays or failures in IDoc processing.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Number Range Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SNRO and check the number range object for IDocs (usually IDOC).
  Ensure that the number range is correctly defined and that there are available numbers in the range.
  If necessary, extend the number range or create a new one.
  
  
  
  Check for Database Locks:
  
  Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the IDoc tables.
  If there are locks, investigate the source of the locks and resolve them.
  
  
  
  Review EDI Configuration:
  
  Check the EDI configuration settings in transaction codes like WE20 (Partner Profiles) and WE21 (Port Definition).
  Ensure that all settings are correct and that the partner profiles are properly configured.
  
  
  
  Monitor System Performance:
  
  Use transaction codes like SM37 to check for any long-running jobs that might be affecting system performance.
  If the system is under heavy load, consider optimizing performance or scheduling jobs during off-peak hours.
  
  
  
  Check IDoc Processing Logic:
  
  Review any custom logic or enhancements related to IDoc processing that might interfere with the IDoc number assignment.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  IDoc Tables: Familiarize yourself with key IDoc tables such as EDIDC (Control Record), EDID4 (Data Record), and EDIDS (Status Record) for troubleshooting.
  Transaction Codes: Common transaction codes for IDoc processing include:
  
  WE02 - Display IDocs
  WE19 - Test tool for IDocs
  WE10 - IDoc type documentation
  
  
  Monitoring Tools: Use transaction SXI_MONI for monitoring EDI messages in the SAP PI/PO environment if applicable.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the cause of the E0081 error in your SAP system.
