• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LT143 - For cumulative transm. of + quantities, dest.item must be specified & & ?

  The SAP error message LT143 indicates an issue related to cumulative transfer postings in the Logistics Execution (LE) module, specifically when dealing with transfer orders (TOs) and transfer postings. The error message states: "For cumulative transmission of + quantities, destination item must be specified."
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when you are trying to perform a cumulative transfer of quantities in a transfer order without specifying a destination item. In SAP, when you are transferring stock, especially in cumulative scenarios, the system requires that you specify both the source and destination items to ensure that the stock is correctly accounted for.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Transfer Order (TO) Details:
  
  Go to the transfer order in question and check the details. Ensure that the destination item is specified correctly in the TO.
  
  
  
  Specify Destination Item:
  
  If the destination item is missing, you need to specify it. You can do this by editing the transfer order and entering the appropriate destination item.
  
  
  
  Review Cumulative Transfer Settings:
  
  Ensure that the settings for cumulative transfers are correctly configured in your system. This may involve checking the configuration in the relevant customizing settings (SPRO) for Logistics Execution.
  
  
  
  Check Stock Types:
  
  Verify that the stock types involved in the transfer are compatible and that the system allows for cumulative transfers between them.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to transfer orders and cumulative transfers for any additional requirements or settings that may need to be adjusted.
  
  
  
  Test the Process:
  
  After making the necessary changes, try to execute the transfer order again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the transfer has the necessary authorizations to perform the actions required.
