  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VV021 - Partial delivery not allowed in assembly orders: Use full delivery ?

    The SAP error message VV021 indicates that a partial delivery is not allowed for assembly orders, and it suggests that a full delivery must be used instead. This error typically arises in the context of sales and distribution (SD) or production planning (PP) when dealing with assembly orders or configurable products.

    Cause:

    1. Configuration Settings: The system is configured to disallow partial deliveries for specific assembly orders. This is often set in the material master or in the sales document type settings.
    2. Order Type: The order type being used may not permit partial deliveries. This is common in assembly orders where the complete assembly is required before delivery.
    3. Delivery Settings: The delivery settings in the sales order or assembly order may be set to require full delivery, which prevents any partial shipments.

    Solution:

    1. Check Order Type Settings: Review the configuration of the order type in the SAP system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant configuration settings in SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object) and checking the delivery settings for the order type.
    2. Material Master Settings: Check the material master record for the item in question. Ensure that the settings related to delivery and assembly are configured correctly. You can do this by using transaction code MM03 to view the material master.
    3. Sales Document Configuration: If the error occurs in a sales order, check the sales document type configuration to see if it allows partial deliveries. This can be done in the SPRO configuration under Sales and Distribution.
    4. Change Delivery Method: If partial deliveries are necessary for your business process, consider changing the delivery method or order type to one that allows partial deliveries.
    5. Complete the Assembly: If the assembly order is meant to be delivered in full, ensure that all components are available and complete the assembly process before attempting to create a delivery.
