  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VN202 - Delivery & does not contain items to be picked ?

    The SAP error message VN202: Delivery & does not contain items to be picked typically occurs during the picking process in the Warehouse Management (WM) or Sales and Distribution (SD) module when you try to create or process a picking document for a delivery that does not have any items assigned or available for picking.


    Cause:

    • The delivery document referenced does not have any line items that are relevant for picking.
    • This can happen if:
      • The delivery items have already been fully picked or goods issued.
      • The delivery items are not relevant for picking (e.g., service items or non-stock items).
      • The delivery document is incomplete or incorrectly created.
      • The stock for the delivery items is not available or not assigned to the warehouse.
      • The picking quantity is zero or the items have been fully confirmed.

    Solution:

    1. Check Delivery Items:

      • Verify that the delivery document contains items that require picking.
      • Use transaction VL03N (Display Outbound Delivery) to check the items and their status.
    2. Check Picking Status:

      • Confirm if the items have already been picked or goods issued.
      • If already picked, no further picking is possible.
    3. Check Item Category:

      • Ensure the item category of the delivery items is relevant for picking (e.g., stock items).
      • Non-stock or service items do not require picking.
    4. Check Stock Availability:

      • Verify stock availability in the warehouse for the delivery items.
      • Use transaction LX03 or MB52 to check stock.
    5. Check Warehouse Assignment:

      • Confirm that the delivery items are assigned to the correct warehouse and storage location.
    6. Recreate or Correct Delivery:

      • If the delivery is incomplete or incorrect, consider correcting or recreating the delivery document.
    7. Check Picking Quantity:

      • Ensure that the picking quantity is greater than zero.
