• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VO054 - Shipment &1 does not contain any outbound deliveries ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  VO054 - Shipment &1 does not contain any outbound deliveries
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to process or confirm a shipment in SAP that currently has no outbound deliveries assigned to it. Essentially, the shipment document exists, but it is empty — no deliveries have been linked or added to this shipment.
  Common scenarios causing this error include:  
  
  Attempting to confirm or post goods issue for a shipment before any outbound deliveries are assigned.  
  The outbound deliveries were removed or not properly added to the shipment.  
  The shipment was created manually but no deliveries were assigned.  
  A system or user error where deliveries were expected but not linked.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you need to ensure that the shipment contains at least one outbound delivery before processing it further.
  Steps to fix:
  
  
  Check the shipment for outbound deliveries:
  
  Use transaction VT03N (Display Shipment) or VT02N (Change Shipment).
  Enter the shipment number and verify if any outbound deliveries are listed.
  
  
  
  Assign outbound deliveries to the shipment:
  
  In VT02N, use the menu option Shipment ? Assign Deliveries or the relevant button to add deliveries.
  You can search for deliveries by shipping point, delivery date, or other criteria.
  Select the appropriate outbound deliveries and add them to the shipment.
  
  
  
  Save the shipment after adding deliveries.
  
  
  Proceed with shipment processing:
  
  After deliveries are assigned, you can confirm the shipment, post goods issue, or perform other shipment-related activities.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  
  Outbound Deliveries: These are delivery documents created in SD (Sales and Distribution) or LE (Logistics Execution) that represent goods to be shipped to customers.
