  SAP Error Message: VG005
  Text: Termination point in intermed.doc. (item &, sched.line &)
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of a delivery or goods movement document when the system detects an inconsistency or an unexpected termination point in the intermediate document (intermed.doc.). Specifically, it means that the system expected a continuation or further processing for a particular item and schedule line, but it encountered a termination point that is not allowed or is inconsistent with the document flow.
  Common causes include:
  
  Incomplete or inconsistent data in the delivery or sales order documents.
  Incorrect or missing schedule line data.
  Problems in the document flow where the intermediate document is not properly linked or terminated.
  Custom enhancements or user exits that incorrectly manipulate the document flow or intermediate documents.
  Issues in the delivery creation or goods issue posting process where the system cannot find the expected continuation of the document.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the VG005 error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Document Flow:
  
  Review the sales order, delivery, and intermediate documents related to the item and schedule line mentioned in the error.
  Use transaction VL03N (Display Delivery) and VA03 (Display Sales Order) to verify the consistency of the documents.
  Check if the schedule lines are correctly maintained and if the delivery items correspond properly to the sales order items.
  
  
  
  Verify Schedule Lines:
  
  Ensure that the schedule lines are complete and correctly maintained.
  Check for any missing or incorrect schedule line data that might cause the termination point issue.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If there are any user exits, BADIs, or custom enhancements related to delivery processing or document flow, review them for possible errors or incorrect logic that might cause premature termination of the intermediate document.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Correct the Delivery:
  
  If the delivery document is corrupted or inconsistent, consider deleting and recreating the delivery.
