  SAP Error Message: WE059 - EAN Management Messages
  
  1. What is WE059?
  
  WE059 is not exactly an error message but rather a transaction code in SAP.
  It is used to display and analyze IDoc (Intermediate Document) status and error messages.
  Specifically, it helps in monitoring and troubleshooting IDocs related to EAN (European Article Number) management or other EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) messages.
  
  
  2. Context: EAN Management Messages
  
  EAN (European Article Number) is a barcode standard used internationally to identify products.
  In SAP, EAN management involves handling product master data with EAN codes, often exchanged via IDocs.
  Errors related to EAN management messages typically occur during the processing of IDocs that carry EAN-related data (e.g., material master updates, EAN assignments).
  
  
  3. Common Causes of EAN Management Messages in WE059
  When you see messages related to EAN management in WE059, it usually means:
  
  Incorrect or missing EAN data in the IDoc segments.
  Mismatch between EAN and material master data in SAP.
  Configuration issues in EAN management or EDI setup.
  Data format errors in the IDoc (wrong segment structure, missing mandatory fields).
  Authorization issues preventing processing of EAN data.
  Partner profile or message type misconfiguration in WE20 or related EDI customizing.
  
  
  4. How to Use WE059
  
  Execute transaction WE059.
  Enter selection criteria (e.g., message type, date, status).
  Review the list of IDocs and their status.
  Drill down into individual IDocs to see detailed error messages.
  Identify the exact segment and field causing the issue.
  
  
  5. Solution Steps
  
  
  Analyze the IDoc in WE19 or WE02:
  
  Check the IDoc data for completeness and correctness.
  Verify EAN fields (e.g., EAN/GTIN codes) are correctly populated.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Ensure the material master has the correct EAN assigned.
  Use transaction MM03 to view material and EAN data.
  
  
  
  Verify Partner Profiles and Message Types:
  
  Use WE20 to check partner profiles.
  Confirm the inbound/outbound parameters and message types are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Check EAN Management Configuration:
  
  Review settings in SPRO under Logistics ? General ? EAN Management.
  Ensure that EAN assignment and validation rules are properly set.
  
  
  
  Correct Data and Reprocess IDoc:
  
  Fix the data errors identified.
  Reprocess the IDoc using WE19 (test tool) or BD87 (reprocessing tool).
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure the user or process has the necessary authorizations to process EAN data.
  
  
  
  
  6. Related Transactions and Tools
  
  WE02 / WE05: Display IDocs and their status.
  WE19: Test tool to reprocess or simulate IDocs.
  BD87: Reprocess IDocs in error status.
  WE20: Partner profile configuration.
  MM03: Display material master.
  SPRO: Customizing for EAN management.
  
  
  7. Additional Notes
  
  EAN management errors often relate to data consistency between the sending system and SAP.
  Sometimes, updates in EAN standards or changes in partner requirements necessitate changes in IDoc structure or validation.
  Always ensure that the IDoc message type and segment definitions match the EAN data being sent.
