  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VR207 - The system cannot generate because of incomplete selections ?

    SAP Error Message:
    VR207 - The system cannot generate because of incomplete selections


    Cause:

    The error message VR207 typically occurs in SAP when the system is unable to generate a document (such as a billing document, invoice, or delivery) because the selection criteria or required data for the process are incomplete or missing. This means that the system expects certain mandatory fields or parameters to be filled or selected before it can proceed with the generation, but these are either not provided or partially provided.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Missing mandatory selection fields in the billing or delivery document creation.
    • Incomplete or inconsistent data in the sales order or delivery that prevents document generation.
    • Required conditions or partner functions not maintained.
    • Missing or incomplete configuration in the billing or sales document types.

    Solution:

    To resolve the VR207 error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Selection Criteria:

      • Review the selection screen or input parameters used for the document generation.
      • Ensure all mandatory fields (such as sales organization, distribution channel, division, customer number, billing type, etc.) are correctly filled.
    2. Verify Document Data Completeness:

      • Check the underlying sales order, delivery, or billing document for completeness.
      • Ensure all required master data (customer master, material master, pricing conditions) are maintained.
      • Verify that all mandatory partner functions are assigned.
    3. Review Configuration:

      • Check the configuration of the document types involved (e.g., billing document type, sales document type).
      • Ensure that the document type allows generation with the given data.
      • Verify that the copy control settings between sales and billing documents are correctly maintained.
    4. Use SAP Transaction Logs and Debugging:

      • Use transaction codes like VF01 (Create Billing Document) or VL01N (Create Delivery) and check the error messages carefully.
      • Use the message log or application log to get more details.
      • If necessary, debug the program to identify which selection or data is incomplete.
    5. Consult SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to VR207.
