• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GS100 - &1 &2 does not exist ?

  The SAP error message "GS100 &1 &2 does not exist" typically indicates that the system is unable to find a specific object or entry that is being referenced. The placeholders &1 and &2 will be replaced with specific identifiers related to the context of the error, such as a material number, customer number, or other relevant keys.
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent Object: The most common cause is that the object (e.g., material, vendor, customer) does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo in the identifier or because the object has not been created yet.
  Data Deletion: The object may have been deleted or archived, making it unavailable for the current transaction.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the object, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent the object from being recognized.
  Transport Issues: If the object was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or activated.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify Object Existence: Check if the object referenced by &1 and &2 actually exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes relevant to the object type (e.g., MM03 for materials, XK03 for vendors).
  Check for Typos: Ensure that there are no typographical errors in the identifier you are using.
  Review Authorizations: Confirm that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the object. This can be done by checking the user roles and permissions.
  Data Consistency Check: If the object should exist, perform a data consistency check to see if there are any issues with the database.
  Consult with Basis Team: If the object was recently transported, consult with the Basis team to ensure that the transport was successful and that the object is active in the target system.
  Check for Deletion/Archiving: If the object was deleted or archived, you may need to restore it or check the archive for the relevant data.
