  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W7045 - No plant number transferred ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W7045 - No plant number transferred


    Cause:

    The warning message W7045 occurs when a plant number is expected to be transferred or determined during a process (such as material master data creation, sales order processing, or goods movement), but the system does not receive or find a valid plant number. This can happen due to:

    • Missing or incomplete master data (e.g., material master not extended to a plant).
    • Incorrect or missing configuration in the transaction or customizing.
    • User input omission where the plant field is left blank.
    • Integration issues where the plant data is not passed from one system or module to another.
    • Incorrect or missing default values in user parameters or transaction defaults.

    Typical Scenarios:

    • Creating or changing material master records without specifying a plant.
    • Sales order or delivery creation where the plant is not determined.
    • Goods movement or inventory transactions missing plant information.
    • Batch jobs or interfaces failing to pass plant data.

    Solution:

    1. Check Master Data:

      • Verify that the material is extended to the relevant plant in the material master (MM01/MM02).
      • Ensure the plant exists and is active in the system (transaction OX10).
    2. User Input:

      • Make sure the plant field is filled in the transaction.
      • If the plant is defaulted via user parameters or transaction defaults, verify these settings.
    3. Configuration:

      • Check customizing settings related to plant determination in the relevant module (e.g., Sales and Distribution, Materials Management).
      • For sales documents, verify the sales area and plant assignment.
    4. Integration and Interfaces:

      • If the process involves data transfer between systems or modules, ensure the plant data is correctly mapped and transferred.
      • Check IDocs, BAPIs, or batch jobs for correct plant data handling.
    5. Debugging:

      • Use transaction code SE91 to look up message W7045 and understand the context.
      • Use debugging tools to trace where the plant number is expected but missing.

    Related Information:

    • Message Class: W7 (often related to material master or plant-related messages)
    • Transaction Codes: MM01, MM02, VA01, VL01N, MIGO, OX10
    • SAP Notes: Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to W7045 for specific scenarios.
    • User Parameters: Check SU3 for default plant settings.
    • Plant Master Data: Ensure plant is created and maintained properly.

    Summary:

    The warning W7045 - No plant number transferred indicates that the system expected a plant number but did not receive one. The resolution involves verifying master data completeness, ensuring correct user input, checking configuration for plant determination, and validating data transfer in integrated processes.
