  Error Message
  VHU01004 No entry exists in the database for &1
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the system tries to access or reference a database entry (such as a table record, configuration, or master data) identified by the placeholder &1 (which will be replaced by the actual key or identifier at runtime), but no such entry exists.
  In the context of SAP Vehicle Management System (VMS) or Vehicle Handling Unit (VHU) module (since the message class is VHU), this typically means:
  
  The system is trying to find a vehicle, vehicle type, or related master data record that does not exist.
  A configuration or customizing entry expected by the process is missing.
  The key or identifier passed to the function/module is incorrect or not maintained in the database.
  
  
  Common Scenarios
  
  Trying to create or process a vehicle document referencing a vehicle or vehicle type that is not maintained.
  Missing entries in vehicle master data tables (e.g., /VHU/VHMT for vehicle master types).
  Missing customizing entries related to vehicle handling or vehicle types.
  Incorrect or incomplete data migration or master data setup.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Key/Identifier
  
  Identify the value passed as &1 in the error message. This will tell you which entry is missing.
  
  
  Verify Master Data  
  
  Go to the relevant vehicle master data transaction (e.g., /VHU/VHMT for vehicle types) and check if the entry exists.
  If missing, create or maintain the required master data.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing  
  
  Use transaction SPRO and navigate to Vehicle Management System customizing.
  Verify that all necessary configuration entries related to the key exist.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency  
  
  If this error occurs during data migration or batch processing, verify the source data for completeness.
