• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EDI_MM_ORDER_RESP012 - No Schedule lines are sent ?

  The SAP error message EDI_MM_ORDER_RESP012, which indicates "No Schedule lines are sent," typically occurs in the context of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) when processing purchase orders or related documents. This error suggests that the system is expecting schedule lines (which detail the delivery dates and quantities for items in a purchase order) but none have been provided in the EDI message.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Schedule Lines: The most straightforward cause is that the EDI message being processed does not contain any schedule line data.
  Incorrect EDI Mapping: The mapping between the EDI message format and the SAP data structure may be incorrect, leading to schedule lines not being recognized or extracted properly.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the EDI settings or in the message type settings that prevent schedule lines from being processed.
  Data Entry Errors: If the purchase order was created without schedule lines or if the schedule lines were inadvertently deleted or not saved properly, this could lead to the error.
  Incompatibility with Document Type: The document type being processed may not support schedule lines, or the specific configuration for that document type may not be set up to handle them.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check the EDI Message: Review the incoming EDI message to ensure that it includes the necessary schedule line data. If it is missing, you may need to correct the sending system to include this information.
  Review EDI Mapping: Ensure that the EDI mapping is correctly set up to extract schedule line data from the incoming message. This may involve working with your EDI team or consultants to adjust the mapping.
  Configuration Review: Check the configuration settings in SAP for the relevant message type and ensure that it is set up to handle schedule lines. This may involve transaction codes like WE20 (Partner Profiles) and WE21 (Port Definition).
  Validate Purchase Order: If the purchase order was created in SAP, verify that it has schedule lines defined. You can do this by checking the purchase order in transaction ME23N.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to EDI and the specific message type you are working with for additional troubleshooting steps.
  Testing: After making any changes, conduct tests to ensure that the EDI messages are processed correctly and that schedule lines are being sent and received as expected.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as ME21N (Create Purchase Order), ME22N (Change Purchase Order), ME23N (Display Purchase Order), WE20 (Partner Profiles), and WE21 (Port Definition).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to EDI processing and schedule lines.
  EDI Standards: Understand the EDI standards being used (e.g., EDIFACT, ANSI X12) and how they relate to the data structure in SAP.
  Integration with Other Systems: If you are integrating with other systems (like a supplier's system), ensure that they are configured to send the correct data.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the EDI_MM_ORDER_RESP012 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
