  Error Message:
  W5132 - Source of supply cancelled (Please assign new one if necessary)
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when the system detects that the source of supply (such as a purchase order, contract, or scheduling agreement) assigned to a procurement document (like a purchase requisition or purchase order) has been cancelled or deleted in the system.
  
  The source of supply is no longer valid or active.
  The system cannot proceed with the procurement process using the cancelled source.
  This situation often arises if the source of supply was manually deleted or marked as cancelled after being assigned.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When creating or changing a purchase requisition or purchase order.
  When the system tries to copy or reference a source of supply that has been cancelled.
  During automatic source determination or source assignment in procurement documents.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Assign a New Source of Supply:
  
  Identify an active and valid source of supply for the material or service.
  Assign this new source to the purchase requisition or purchase order.
  This can be done manually or by running source determination again.
  
  
  
  Check Source of Supply Status:
  
  Verify the status of the source of supply in transaction codes like:
  
  ME33K (Display Contract)
  ME33L (Display Scheduling Agreement)
  ME23N (Display Purchase Order)
  
  
  Confirm if the source is cancelled or deleted.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Reactivate Source of Supply:
  
  If the source of supply was cancelled by mistake, consider reactivating or recreating it if business processes allow.
  
  
  
  Update Procurement Document:
  
  After assigning a valid source, save the procurement document again.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Source of Supply in SAP refers to the vendor and document (contract, scheduling agreement, or purchase order) that is the basis for procurement.
  Cancellation of a source of supply means it is no longer valid for procurement.
