  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VHUAP215 - Select one header row (sales order, stock tr. order or delivery) only ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message VHUAP215: "Select one header row (sales order, stock tr. order or delivery) only":


    Error Message:

    VHUAP215 - Select one header row (sales order, stock tr. order or delivery) only


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you are trying to process or execute a function in SAP (often in the context of handling sales orders, stock transport orders, or deliveries) and you have selected more than one header row in the list or ALV grid. The program expects exactly one header row to be selected to proceed, but multiple rows or no rows have been selected.

    Typical scenarios include:

    • You are in a transaction or report where you need to select a single sales document header (sales order, stock transport order, or delivery) to perform an action (e.g., display, change, or create related documents).
    • You have either selected multiple rows or none at all.
    • The system cannot determine which single document to process because of multiple selections.

    Solution:

    1. Select exactly one header row:

      • Go back to the selection screen or list.
      • Make sure to select only one header row (one sales order, one stock transport order, or one delivery).
      • Deselect any other rows if multiple are selected.
    2. Check your selection method:

      • If you are using checkboxes or highlighting rows, ensure only one row is marked.
      • Sometimes, clicking on a row highlights it, but checkboxes might also be used for selection. Confirm only one is active.
    3. If no rows are selected:

      • Select one row before proceeding.
    4. If you need to process multiple documents:

      • Check if the transaction or report supports batch processing.
      • If not, process documents one by one.

    Related Information:

    • This message is common in sales and distribution (SD) module transactions or custom reports where document processing is involved.
    • The message is a safeguard to prevent ambiguous processing.
    • If you are developing or customizing reports/programs, ensure that the selection logic enforces single selection or handles multiple selections appropriately.
    • Sometimes, this message appears in custom Z-reports or user exits/enhancements where the logic expects a single document.

    Example Scenario:

    • You run a report to display delivery details.
    • The ALV grid shows multiple deliveries.
    • You select two deliveries by ticking checkboxes.
    • You press a button to display detailed info.
    • The system throws VHUAP215 because it expects only one delivery to be selected.

    If you provide the exact transaction or context where this error occurs, I can give more tailored advice.


    Summary:

    Aspect Description
    Cause More than one header row selected or none selected when only one is allowed.
    Solution Select exactly one header row before proceeding.
    Related Info Common in SD module; ensure single selection; check custom code if applicable.
