    SAP Error Message:
    VO061 - Position the cursor on the delivery you want to select


    Cause:

    This message typically appears in the context of transaction codes or screens where you are required to select a delivery from a list or table (for example, during delivery processing, picking, or goods issue). The system expects the user to position the cursor (highlight/select) on a specific delivery line before proceeding with an action.

    The error occurs because the user tried to execute a function (like processing, confirming, or selecting a delivery) without first selecting a delivery line in the list. The system cannot determine which delivery you want to work on.


    Solution:

    • Position the cursor on the delivery line:
      Before executing the next step (e.g., clicking a button or pressing Enter), click on the delivery line in the list to highlight it. This tells the system which delivery you want to select.

    • Check the selection method:
      Some screens require you to mark a checkbox or select the entire line. Make sure you follow the screen’s selection method.

    • Use the correct transaction flow:
      Ensure you are following the correct steps in the transaction. Sometimes, skipping a step or trying to process without selecting a delivery causes this message.

    • If using a custom program or enhancement:
      Check if the selection logic is correctly implemented to handle the delivery selection.


    Related Information:

    • This message is common in delivery processing transactions such as VL01N, VL02N, VL10B, VL10D, or other logistics-related transactions.
    • The message is a prompt to ensure user interaction is clear and unambiguous.
    • If you encounter this message in a custom program or report, verify that the program logic requires the user to select a delivery before proceeding.
    • Sometimes, this message can be bypassed by selecting the delivery programmatically or by adjusting the user interface to make selection mandatory.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Message VO061 - Position the cursor on the delivery you want to select
    Cause No delivery line selected before action
    Solution Click/select the delivery line before proceeding
