• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WE024 - Enter target entries ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WE024 - Enter target entries
  
  Cause:
  The error message WE024 - Enter target entries typically occurs during IDoc processing or when maintaining partner profiles in the SAP system. It indicates that the system expects you to enter target entries (i.e., the target system or partner information) but none have been provided.
  In more detail:  
  
  When configuring partner profiles (transaction WE20), you define the communication parameters for sending or receiving IDocs.  
  For outbound processing, you must specify the target system(s) where the IDoc should be sent.  
  If you try to save or process without specifying these target entries, SAP throws this error.  
  Similarly, during IDoc processing, if the system cannot find the target entries for routing the IDoc, this error may appear.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Partner Profile Configuration (WE20):  
  
  Go to transaction WE20.  
  Select the relevant partner type (e.g., LS for Logical System, KU for Customer, LI for Vendor).  
  Select the partner number.  
  Under the outbound parameters, ensure that you have defined the target entries (i.e., the target logical system or port).  
  If missing, add the target entries specifying the message type, process code, and the target system or port.
  
  
  
  Maintain Ports (WE21):  
  
  Ensure that the ports defined in the partner profile exist and are correctly configured in transaction WE21.
  
  
  
  Check Logical Systems (BD54):  
  
  Verify that the logical systems used as targets are properly defined and consistent.
  
  
  
  During IDoc Processing:  
  
  If the error occurs during IDoc processing, check the partner profile for the sender or receiver partner to ensure target entries exist.  
  Also, verify that the message type and process code are correctly maintained.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the IDoc:  
  
  After correcting the partner profile, reprocess the IDoc.
