  VR559 - Enter number of SD documents
  
  Cause:
  The error message VR559 typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) document processing, especially during billing or delivery document creation. It indicates that the system expects the user to enter the number of SD documents (such as sales orders, deliveries, or billing documents) to be processed, but this information was not provided.
