- Select an event creation date/time ?SAP Error Message: WA159 - Select an event creation date/time
Cause: This error occurs when you are trying to create or process an event in SAP (often in modules like PM - Plant Maintenance, or CS - Customer Service) but have not specified the event creation date and time. The system requires this date/time to properly log and manage the event. Explanation: The event creation date/time is a mandatory field that indicates when the event was created. Without this information, the system cannot proceed because it needs a timestamp for event tracking, scheduling, and reporting. This error typically appears in transaction codes related to event or notification creation, such as IW21 (Create PM Notification), or in custom developments where event creation is involved.
Solution: Enter the Event Creation Date/Time: When prompted, fill in the event creation date and time fields. Usually, the system defaults to the current date/time, but if it is missing or deleted, you must enter it manually. Check User
