  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VN204 - Delivery group & has no pickable delivery ?

    SAP Error Message:
    VN204 - Delivery group & has no pickable delivery


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs in the context of Inbound Delivery Processing or Warehouse Management (WM) when the system tries to create or process a delivery group, but it cannot find any delivery documents that are "pickable" or available for picking within that delivery group.

    Key points:

    • A delivery group is a collection of deliveries grouped together for processing.
    • The system expects at least one delivery in the group to be in a status that allows picking (e.g., confirmed, released, or ready for picking).
    • If all deliveries in the group are already fully picked, canceled, or not yet released for picking, the system throws this error.
    • It can also happen if the delivery group is incorrectly assigned or if the deliveries are not properly linked to the group.

    Common Causes:

    1. No deliveries in the group are in a pickable status:
      Deliveries might be fully picked, canceled, or not yet released.

    2. Incorrect or incomplete delivery group assignment:
      The delivery group might not contain any deliveries or the deliveries are not relevant for picking.

    3. Delivery documents are blocked or have errors:
      Deliveries might be blocked for picking due to errors or missing data.

    4. Warehouse process or configuration issues:
      The warehouse management system might not be correctly configured to handle the delivery group or the picking process.


    How to Analyze:

    • Check the delivery group in transaction VL06I (Inbound Delivery Monitor) or VL06O (Outbound Delivery Monitor) depending on context.
    • Verify the status of deliveries assigned to the group.
    • Use transaction VL03N to display individual deliveries and check their picking status.
    • Check if deliveries are blocked or have errors.
    • Review warehouse task creation and picking status in WM transactions like LT23 (Display Transfer Orders).

    Solution / Resolution:

    1. Ensure deliveries are in a pickable status:

      • Release deliveries for picking if they are still blocked.
      • Confirm that deliveries are not fully picked or canceled.
      • If deliveries are fully processed, no picking is possible, so the delivery group should be adjusted.
    2. Adjust or recreate the delivery group:

      • Remove deliveries that are not pickable.
      • Add deliveries that are ready for picking.
    3. Check and correct warehouse process steps:

      • Ensure warehouse tasks are created correctly.
      • Confirm that picking is not already completed.
    4. If necessary, reset or reprocess deliveries:

      • Sometimes deliveries need to be reset or reprocessed if stuck in an incorrect status.
    5. Consult with Warehouse Management or Logistics team:

      • They can verify if the delivery group assignment and picking process are correct.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction codes:

      • VL06I - Inbound Delivery Monitor
      • VL06O - Outbound Delivery Monitor
      • VL03N - Display Delivery
      • LT23 - Display Transfer Orders
    • SAP Notes:
      Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to message VN204 for specific patches or known issues.

    • Configuration:
      Check delivery group settings in Logistics Execution and Warehouse Management customizing.


    Summary:

    The error VN204 Delivery group & has no pickable delivery means the system cannot find any deliveries in the specified delivery group that are ready for picking. To resolve, verify delivery statuses, adjust the delivery group contents, and ensure warehouse processes are correctly executed.
