• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QI057 - The specified object was not sent to a receiving party ?

  The SAP error message QI057, which states "The specified object was not sent to a receiving party," typically occurs in the context of Quality Management (QM) processes, particularly when dealing with notifications, messages, or data that need to be communicated to another party (such as a vendor, customer, or internal department).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The system may not be properly configured to send messages to the specified receiving party. This could be due to missing settings in the message control or output determination.
  Incorrect Partner Profile: The partner profile for the receiving party may not be set up correctly, or the necessary communication method (e.g., EDI, email) may not be defined.
  Object Not Found: The object that is supposed to be sent (e.g., a notification or quality inspection result) may not exist or may not be in the correct status to be sent.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to send the object to the receiving party.
  Technical Issues: There could be technical issues such as network problems, system downtime, or issues with the middleware if applicable.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Configuration: Verify the configuration settings for message control and output determination in the relevant transaction (e.g., NACE for output types). Ensure that the output type is correctly defined and linked to the appropriate application.
  Review Partner Profiles: Check the partner profiles in transaction WE20 to ensure that the receiving party is correctly set up with the necessary communication methods.
  Validate Object Status: Ensure that the object you are trying to send is in the correct status and exists in the system. For example, if it’s a notification, make sure it is released and ready to be sent.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the action. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Technical Troubleshooting: If the issue persists, check for any technical issues such as network connectivity, system logs, or middleware errors. You may need to consult with your IT support team for further investigation.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as NACE (for output types), WE20 (for partner profiles), and SLG1 (for application logs) to troubleshoot further.
