W5072 - Details

  • SAP Error Message:
    W5072 – "Please pass on parameter for open or closed purchase requisitions"
    
    
    Cause: This warning message appears when a report, transaction, or program related to purchase requisitions requires a parameter to specify whether to process open or closed purchase requisitions, but this parameter has not been provided or is missing. In other words, the system expects the user or the calling program to indicate if the operation should consider only open purchase requisitions, only closed ones, or both, but this input was not given. When does it occur? When running reports or programs that analyze or list purchase requisitions. When executing custom or standard SAP transactions that filter purchase requisitions by their status. When a selection screen or input parameter for "open/closed" status is left blank or not passed programmatically.
    Solution: Provide the required parameter: When running the report or transaction, ensure you specify the parameter that indicates whether you want to process open, closed, or all purchase
