  The SAP error message LOBM_MESSAGES059: No batch numbers could be determined typically occurs in the context of inventory management or production processes when the system is unable to find any valid batch numbers for a material during a transaction. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during goods movements, production orders, or when trying to issue materials.
  Causes:
  
  
  No Batches Created: The material in question may not have any batches created. If batch management is enabled for the material, you need to ensure that batches are created and available.
  
  
  Batch Status: The batches that exist may be in a status that does not allow them to be used (e.g., blocked, expired, or restricted).
  
  
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the transaction may not match any existing batches. This can include parameters like plant, storage location, or batch type.
  
  
  Batch Management Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of batch management in the system, such as incorrect settings in the material master.
