How To Fix WC029 - Dummy initialization for customer number & was performed

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WC - POS interface - outbound and Tickets & Additionals

• Message number: 029

• Message text: Dummy initialization for customer number & was performed

What causes this issue?

Dummy initialization was executed for the store with customer number
&V1&.

System Response

Dummy initialization is only to be executed if the POS systems for the
relevant stores have access to the relevant data when POS outbound is
activated.
Normally, changes to POS outbound can only be activated if
initialization has been carried out successfully.
However, if all POS data is available having been supplied from a
legacy system, a complete initialization is not necessary. So that
changes can be activated, suitable entries must be generated in the
status tables of POS outbound. In doing so, the system believes that a
correct initialization has already been executed.
This is why a dummy initialization is so useful.
Note: After dummy initialization has been executed, the next change run
in POS outbound will only take data changes into consideration if they
were executed after the time period for the dummy initialization.
This means:
In the next change run, changes can only be included if they were
executed after &V2& on &V3&.
