  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY415 - PPF: Document &1 contains no items ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY415 PPF: Document &1 contains no items typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when trying to process a Post Processing Framework (PPF) action for a delivery document that does not contain any items. This can happen for various reasons, and understanding the cause and potential solutions is essential for resolving the issue.

    Cause:

    1. Empty Delivery Document: The most straightforward cause is that the delivery document referenced in the error message does not have any items associated with it. This could happen if the delivery was created but no items were added to it.

    2. Incorrect Document Reference: The document number referenced in the error message might be incorrect or might not exist in the system.

    3. Data Deletion: Items may have been deleted from the delivery document after it was created, leading to an empty document.

    4. PPF Configuration: There might be an issue with the configuration of the PPF action that is trying to process the delivery.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Delivery Document: Verify the delivery document number mentioned in the error message. Go to the delivery document in the SAP system and check if it indeed contains any items. If it is empty, you may need to create or add items to the delivery.

    2. Review Document Creation Process: If the delivery should have items, review the process that created the delivery to ensure that items were correctly added.

    3. Check for Deletions: Investigate if any items were deleted from the delivery after it was created. If items were removed, you may need to recreate the delivery or add the items back.

    4. PPF Configuration: Review the PPF configuration settings to ensure that they are set up correctly for the delivery type you are working with. Ensure that the PPF action is applicable to the type of delivery document you are processing.

    5. Error Handling: If the delivery is indeed empty and this is expected behavior, you may need to implement error handling in your process to avoid triggering PPF actions for empty documents.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like /SCWM/PRDI to check the delivery documents and /SCWM/PPF to review PPF settings.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
    • Documentation: Refer to the SAP EWM documentation for more details on PPF and delivery processing.
