• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EAN_UCC116 - No internal or external interval found for the entered GLN &1 ?

  The SAP error message EAN_UCC116 indicates that there is no internal or external interval found for the entered Global Location Number (GLN). This error typically occurs in the context of using the EANCOM or GS1 standards for electronic data interchange (EDI) and is related to the management of GLNs, which are used to identify locations in a standardized way.
  Cause:
  
  Missing GLN Configuration: The GLN you are trying to use has not been configured in the system. This could mean that the GLN is not registered in the relevant master data tables.
  Incorrect GLN Format: The GLN entered may not conform to the expected format or may contain invalid characters.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing intervals or incorrect settings in the EAN or GLN configuration.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to access the GLN data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check GLN Configuration:
  
  Verify that the GLN you are trying to use is correctly configured in the system. You can do this by checking the relevant master data tables (e.g., EAN/UPC master data).
  Ensure that the GLN is included in the internal or external intervals defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Validate GLN Format:
  
  Ensure that the GLN is entered in the correct format. A GLN is typically a 13-digit number. Check for any leading or trailing spaces or invalid characters.
  
  
  
  Update Master Data:
  
  If the GLN is missing, you may need to create a new entry in the master data for the GLN. This can usually be done through transaction codes like WE20 (for partner profiles) or WE21 (for port definitions) depending on your configuration.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify GLN data. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation or help files related to EANCOM and GLN management for any additional configuration steps that may be required.
  
  
  
  Contact Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
