VW880 - Details

• The SAP error message VW880 indicates that a delivery is already included in a shipment and cannot be added again as a subsequent leg. This typically occurs in the context of transportation management or logistics when trying to manage deliveries and shipments in SAP.
  
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entry: The delivery you are trying to add is already part of an existing shipment.
  Incorrect Shipment Processing: The system may not allow the same delivery to be processed in multiple shipments or legs.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the shipment data or delivery status.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Shipment Status: Verify if the delivery is already assigned to a shipment. You can do this by checking the shipment document in SAP.
  Review Delivery Assignment: If the delivery is indeed part of another shipment, you will need to either remove it from that shipment or create a new delivery for the new shipment.
