How To Fix VO215 - As yet, no allocation of plant/storage location &/& to a warehouse number


SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: VO - W&S: Rough workload forecast + picking wave

  • Message number: 215

  • Message text: As yet, no allocation of plant/storage location &/& to a warehouse number

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Within the respective document, an item has been entered that points to
    plant &V1& and storage location &V2&.
    For the combination plant / storage location, the system has tried to
    find a warehouse number. However, no entry has been found in the
    respective allocation table.

    System Response

    The workload data is therefore updated with the initial value for the
    feature 'warehouse number'.
    If, in the respective document item, you have a warehouse process of the
    type "Picking / goods issue" or "returns to supplier", then no planned
    storage type and planned picking area can be derived because the
    warehouse number is missing.
    The respective tables for these warehouse processes are therefore
    updated with the initial value for the features "planned storage type"
    and "planned picking area".
    Furthermore, no workload calculation can be made because the workload
    times must always be maintained in connection with a warehouse number.

    How to fix this error?

    If the combination &V1&/&V2& is appropriate from the view of Warehouse
    Management and the rough workload forecast, then you should maintain the
    assignment using the function <DS:TRAN.OML2>Assign warehouse number to
    plant / storage location</>.

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VO215 - As yet, no allocation of plant/storage location &/& to a warehouse number ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message VO215:


    SAP Error Message VO215

    Message Text:
    As yet, no allocation of plant/storage location &/& to a warehouse number


    Cause

    This error occurs when you try to perform a warehouse management (WM) related transaction or process, but the system cannot find an assignment between the plant/storage location and a warehouse number in the system.

    In SAP Warehouse Management, each warehouse number must be assigned to a specific plant and storage location combination. This assignment is necessary because the warehouse number represents the WM organizational unit, and the plant/storage location represents the Inventory Management (IM) organizational unit. Without this link, the system cannot determine which warehouse number to use for the given plant/storage location.


    When does it occur?

    • When creating or processing goods movements involving WM.
    • When trying to post goods receipts or issues that require WM integration.
    • When executing warehouse tasks or transfers.
    • During inventory management transactions that involve WM.

    Solution

    1. Check the assignment of Plant/Storage Location to Warehouse Number:

      • Go to SPRO ?
        Enterprise Structure ?
        Assignment ?
        Logistics Execution ?
        Assign Warehouse Number to Plant and Storage Location

      • Or directly use transaction OX09.

    2. Assign the warehouse number to the relevant plant and storage location:

      • Enter the plant and storage location.
      • Assign the correct warehouse number.
      • Save the configuration.
    3. Verify the warehouse number:

      • Make sure the warehouse number exists and is active.
      • Check that the warehouse number is correctly configured for the plant/storage location.
    4. Check master data consistency:

      • Ensure that the material master, storage location, and warehouse number are consistent.
      • Verify that the WM organizational structure is properly maintained.

    Additional Information

    • The warehouse number is a key organizational unit in Warehouse Management and must be linked to the plant/storage location to enable integration between Inventory Management (IM) and Warehouse Management (WM).
    • If you have multiple storage locations in a plant, each storage location that is managed in WM must be assigned to a warehouse number.
    • This error is common during initial WM setup or when new plants/storage locations are added but not yet assigned to a warehouse number.
    • If you are using Extended Warehouse Management (EWM), this assignment is handled differently, and this error typically applies to classic WM.

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Error VO215: No allocation of plant/storage location to warehouse number
    Cause Missing assignment between plant/storage location and warehouse number
