  VG235 - No IDoc data for processing (table IDOC_DATA is empty)

  The IDoc data segments were deleted or not properly filled during IDoc creation or inbound processing.
  A mismatch or inconsistency between the control record and the data records.
  The IDoc was incorrectly referenced or the IDoc number is wrong.
  The IDoc was archived or deleted, so the data segments are no longer available.
  A program or function module that processes the IDoc is called with an empty data table.
