Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Storage Location Data: The most common reason for this error is that the material does not have any data defined for the specific storage location in the material master. This can happen if the material has not been set up correctly for that storage location.
  
  
  Incorrect Plant/Storage Location: The error may also occur if the plant or storage location specified in the transaction does not match the data in the material master.

  Data Deletion: If storage location-specific data was previously defined but has been deleted or not properly maintained, this error can occur.
