    SAP Error Message:
    VN2029 - Send time & not allowed


    Cause:

    The error message VN2029 typically occurs in the context of vendor master data or purchasing documents when the "Send time" field contains an invalid or not allowed value. This field controls when the output (such as purchase orders, confirmations, or other messages) is sent to the vendor.

    The system checks the "Send time" against allowed values configured in the output determination or communication settings. If the entered send time is not permitted (for example, a time outside the allowed range or an incorrect format), the system throws this error.


    Detailed Explanation:

    • The "Send time" is usually part of the output control parameters.
    • It defines when the message should be sent (immediately, scheduled, or at a specific time).
    • The allowed values for send time are defined in customizing or by the output device settings.
    • If a user tries to enter a send time that is not configured or allowed, the system rejects it.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Send Time Value:

      • Verify the value entered in the "Send time" field.
      • Ensure it matches the allowed values or formats defined in your system.
    2. Review Output Determination Configuration:

      • Go to SPRO ? Materials Management ? Purchasing ? Messages ? Output Control.
      • Check the configuration for the output type you are using.
      • Verify the allowed send times and adjust if necessary.
    3. Check Vendor Master or Document Output Settings:

      • In the vendor master or purchasing document, check the output message settings.
      • Correct the send time to a valid value.
    4. Consult with Basis or Technical Team:

      • Sometimes, the allowed send times are controlled by the communication system or middleware.
      • Ensure that the communication system supports the send time you want to use.
    5. Testing:

      • After correction, try to save or send the output again.
      • The error should no longer appear if the send time is valid.

    • SAP Notes:

      • Check SAP Notes related to output determination and message control for your SAP version.
    • Output Types and Send Time:

      • Common send times include:
        • Immediate (e.g., 0000)
        • Scheduled times (e.g., 0800, 1200)
      • The exact allowed values depend on your system setup.

    If you provide the exact context (e.g., transaction, document type), I can help you with more specific steps.
