The SAP error message EDOCUMENT_IN_EWB012: No Transport Distance found typically occurs in the context of the Electronic Waybill (E-Way Bill) generation process in India, particularly when dealing with the Goods and Services Tax (GST) compliance. This error indicates that the system is unable to determine the transport distance for the goods being transported, which is a necessary piece of information for generating the E-Way Bill.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
