VN023 - Details

  • SAP Error Message:
    VN023 - Repetition is not defined for output &
    
    
    Cause: This error occurs when the system tries to process or print an output type that is configured to allow repetitions (multiple outputs of the same type), but the repetition number or sequence is not defined or maintained in the output determination procedure. In other words, the output type in the purchasing document or vendor master is set up to allow multiple outputs (repetitions), but the system cannot find the corresponding repetition number or the configuration for handling repetitions is missing. When does it occur? During output determination for purchasing documents (e.g., Purchase Orders, Contracts). When the output type is configured with the "Repetition allowed" flag, but the repetition number is not maintained or the system cannot find the repetition sequence. When trying to reprint or resend an output and the system expects a repetition number but it is not provided.
    Solution: Check Output Type Configuration: Go to transaction
