  SAP Error Message:
  
  VO051 - Specified intervals have no shipment numbers
  
  Cause:
  The error message VO051 occurs when you try to process or reference shipment numbers within a specified interval (range), but no shipment documents exist in the system for that interval. Essentially, the system is being asked to find shipment numbers in a range that does not contain any shipment records.
  This can happen in scenarios such as:
  
  Attempting to display or process shipments by entering a shipment number range that is incorrect or does not exist.
  Using selection criteria in shipment reports or transactions that do not match any shipment numbers.
  Trying to reference shipment numbers that have been deleted or never created.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Shipment Number Range:
  
  Verify that the shipment number interval you entered is correct.
  Ensure that the shipment numbers exist in the system.
  Use transaction VT03N (Display Shipment) or VT01N (Create Shipment) to check existing shipment numbers.
  
  
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria:
  
  Broaden the selection criteria to include shipment numbers that exist.
  Remove or correct any filters that might exclude all shipment numbers.
  
  
  
  Check Shipment Number Assignment:
  
  Confirm that shipment numbers are being generated correctly in your system.
  Check number range intervals for shipments in transaction SNRO or VOFA (depending on SAP version).
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  If shipment numbers were deleted or data was archived, ensure that your selection interval corresponds to existing data.
  If necessary, consult with your SAP Basis or Logistics team to verify data integrity.
