• SAP Error Message:
  VN125 - Additional shipment data is required for determining output
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the output determination process in the Logistics Execution (LE) module, specifically when processing shipment documents (e.g., delivery or shipment outputs). The system tries to determine the output type (such as a delivery note, shipment confirmation, or label) but finds that some mandatory shipment-related data is missing or incomplete. Without this additional shipment data, the output determination cannot proceed.
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing or incomplete shipment header or item data required for output determination.
  Output determination procedure configured to require certain shipment fields that are not filled.
  Custom output determination routines or conditions expecting specific shipment data.
  Incomplete partner data or missing shipping point/route information.
  Missing or incorrect shipment type or output type configuration.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Shipment Data Completeness:
  
  Verify that all mandatory shipment fields are filled in the shipment document.
  Ensure shipment header and item data (e.g., shipping point, route, transportation planning point) are maintained.
