  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VHUAP001 - Sales order &1/&2 does not contain material &1 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    VHUAP001 Sales order &1/&2 does not contain material &1


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when a process or transaction tries to reference a material in a sales order that does not exist in that sales order. Specifically, the system is looking for a material (material number &1) in sales order number &1 (and possibly item &2), but it cannot find it.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Attempting to perform an operation (e.g., delivery creation, billing, pricing, or availability check) on a material that was never added to the sales order.
    • Custom code or user-exits trying to access a material line that is not present.
    • Data inconsistencies or incorrect input parameters referencing a wrong material or sales order item.

    Typical Causes:

    • The material number specified is incorrect or mistyped.
    • The sales order item number (&2) does not correspond to the material &1.
    • The sales order was changed or partially deleted, and the material line no longer exists.
    • Custom developments or enhancements referencing materials incorrectly.
    • Integration or interface errors where material data is not properly synchronized.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Verify Sales Order and Material:

      • Check the sales order (&1) in transaction VA03.
      • Confirm that the material (&1) exists in the sales order items (&2).
      • If the material is missing, add it if required or correct the material number.
    2. Check the Process Triggering the Error:

      • Identify which process or transaction is causing the error (e.g., delivery creation, billing).
      • Ensure that the material referenced is valid for that sales order.
    3. Review Custom Code or User-Exits:

      • If custom developments are involved, debug or review the code to ensure it references existing materials correctly.
      • Check enhancements or BADIs related to sales order processing.
    4. Data Consistency Check:

      • Run consistency checks on sales order data.
      • Use transaction VA02 to review and correct sales order items.
    5. Correct Input Data:

      • If the error occurs during data upload or interface processing, verify the input data files or IDocs for correctness.
