  The order has not been processed further (e.g., no delivery or billing has been created).
  The documents have been deleted or not created due to errors in the process.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Order Profile: The order profile specified may not be set up correctly or may not correspond to the expected document flow.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the document flow.
  
  
  System Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the SAP system that prevent the document flow from being generated or displayed.

  Check Document Creation: Verify if the subsequent documents (like delivery or invoice) have been created for the order. If not, proceed with creating them.
  
  
  Review Order Profile: Ensure that the order profile specified in the order is correct and that it is configured to allow for the expected document flow.
