SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: VR - Output for SD Reporting

• Message number: 542

• Message text: Schedule lines due for shipping after &1 are not displayed

What causes this issue?

You can restrict the delivery creation period with this selection
criteria.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

This enables you to just select order items that have at least one
schedule line due for shipping during this period.

System Response

If you have chosen a list that displays individual schedule lines, the
system displays all schedule lines that contain an open delivery
quantity and that should be created before the "delivery creation date
to".

How to fix this error?

For day-to-day activites or for scheduling the delivery creation report
at short intervals (for example, every hour), you should specifiy the
current date as "delivery creation date from".
You should deliver due schedule lines (with a blank "delivery creation
date from" when there is plenty of system capacity (for example, at
night). You should also check whether it would be a good idea to
<DS:TRAN.CO06>process backorders</>.
If you specify the "delivery creation date from" field but leave the
"delivery creation date to" field blank, the system only selects orders
with schedule lines due for shipping on that day.

  SAP Error Message:
  VR542 - Schedule lines due for shipping after &1 are not displayed
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This message appears in the Sales and Distribution (SD) module when you try to display or process schedule lines for a sales order or delivery, but the system does not show schedule lines that have a confirmed delivery date after a certain date (&1).
  Cause:  
  
  The system is configured or restricted to display schedule lines only up to a certain date (the date represented by &1 in the message).  
  Schedule lines with confirmed delivery dates beyond this date are not shown because of selection criteria or system settings.  
  This often happens when the user or program filters schedule lines by delivery date or when the system uses a "cut-off" date for schedule line display.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When viewing or processing sales order schedule lines in transaction VA03, VA02, or during delivery creation (VL01N, VL02N).  
  When the system or user applies a filter on schedule lines based on delivery dates.  
  When the system uses a "shipping due date" or "delivery date" cut-off to limit schedule line display.
  
  
  Solution / How to resolve:
  
  
  Check the selection criteria or filter date:  
  
  Review the date entered in the selection screen or filter for schedule lines.  
  Adjust the date to include the schedule lines you want to see (i.e., extend the date range).
  
  
  
  Check user exit or custom code:  
  
  Sometimes, custom developments or user exits may restrict schedule line display based on delivery dates.  
  Review and adjust any custom logic if applicable.
  
  
  
  Check system settings:  
  
  In some cases, system parameters or configuration might limit schedule line display.  
  Consult with your SD or Basis team to verify if any system-wide restrictions exist.
  
  
  
  Display all schedule lines:  
  
  In transaction VA03 or VA02, ensure that no restrictive filters are applied on schedule lines.
