VN2030 - Details

• SAP Error Message:
  VN2030 - Send time & allowed: Time determination program missing
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of vendor master data or related transactions when the system tries to determine the "send time" for output messages (such as purchase orders, confirmations, etc.) but cannot find the required time determination program.
  In SAP, output determination for messages (like purchase orders) involves determining when the message should be sent. This is controlled by a time determination program assigned in the output type configuration. If this program is missing or not assigned, the system cannot calculate the send time, resulting in the VN2030 error.
  
  Where it occurs:
  
  Typically during output processing in MM (Materials Management) or FI (Financial Accounting) when sending documents to vendors.
  When configuring or processing output types in transaction NACE or the newer output management framework.
  When the output type's time determination program is not maintained or incorrectly assigned.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Output Type Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction NACE
