• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU_MES114 - Issued seals in category &1 could be returned to purchased only via MM ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU_MES114 indicates that there is an issue related to the handling of issued seals in a specific category. The message states that these seals can only be returned to the purchasing module (MM - Materials Management) and not through the current process you are attempting.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Process: The error typically arises when a user attempts to return issued seals through a process that is not supported by the system. This could happen if the seals are categorized in a way that requires them to be managed through the MM module.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that dictate how certain materials (in this case, seals) are managed, which could lead to this error if not set up correctly.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to perform the action they are attempting, leading to the error message.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Return via MM: To resolve the issue, you should follow the correct procedure for returning the issued seals through the Materials Management module. This typically involves:
  
  Navigating to the appropriate transaction in MM (e.g., MIGO for goods movements).
  Selecting the correct document type for returning the seals.
  Ensuring that the seals are categorized correctly in the system.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration: If you believe the process should allow for returns outside of MM, check the configuration settings related to the handling of seals. This may involve consulting with your SAP configuration team to ensure that the settings align with your business processes.
  
  
  User Authorization: Ensure that the user attempting the return has the necessary authorizations to perform the action in the MM module. This may require coordination with your SAP security team.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant SAP documentation or notes related to the handling of issued seals and the specific error message. This can provide additional insights or updates that may be relevant.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional context on handling issued seals.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in MM, such as MIGO (Goods Movement) and MIRO (Invoice Verification), which may be necessary for processing returns.
  Training: If this is a recurring issue, consider providing training for users on the correct processes for handling issued seals and returns in SAP.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
