    SAP Message: W_DFE035 - Determination of stock situation


    1. Cause

    The warning message W_DFE035 typically occurs during the determination of the stock situation in SAP, especially in the context of delivery processing, availability check, or during the determination of stock for outbound deliveries or production orders.

    Common causes include:

    • The system cannot find a suitable stock situation for the requested material or quantity.
    • Stock determination is ambiguous or incomplete due to missing or inconsistent master data.
    • The stock situation determination logic (e.g., stock determination strategy, stock types, or stock statuses) is not properly configured.
    • The stock situation is not determined because the stock is blocked, reserved, or otherwise unavailable.
    • The system is unable to determine stock due to missing or incorrect plant/storage location data.
    • The availability check or stock determination is performed with parameters that do not match the actual stock situation.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the W_DFE035 warning, consider the following steps:

    • Check Material Master Data:

      • Verify that the material master is correctly maintained, especially the relevant views such as MRP, Plant Data, and Storage Location data.
      • Ensure that the material is extended to the correct plant and storage location.
    • Review Stock Situation Configuration:

      • Check the stock determination strategy in Customizing (SPRO) under Logistics Execution or Materials Management.
      • Verify stock types and stock statuses that are considered during stock determination.
      • Ensure that stock determination rules are correctly set up for the relevant plant/storage location.
    • Check Stock Availability:

      • Use transaction MMBE to check the actual stock situation for the material.
      • Verify if stock is blocked, reserved, or otherwise unavailable.
      • Confirm that stock is available in the correct storage location and plant.
    • Review Delivery or Order Parameters:

      • Check the delivery or order for correct plant, storage location, and stock determination parameters.
      • Ensure that the availability check is performed with the correct scope and settings.
    • Adjust Availability Check Settings:

      • Review the availability check configuration (transaction OVZ9 or via SPRO).
      • Adjust the scope of check or check rules if necessary.
    • Debug or Analyze Logs:

      • If the issue persists, analyze the system logs or debug the stock determination process to identify where the determination fails.
