    SAP Error Message:

    WES_OUTBOUND014 Message &1 not created (&2 data records) &3 &4


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error message typically occurs in the context of SAP's outbound processing, especially related to IDoc (Intermediate Document) creation or message generation for data transfer to external systems or other SAP systems.

    • Message &1 not created: The system attempted to create a specific outbound message (e.g., an IDoc or ALE message) but failed.
    • (&2 data records): Indicates the number of data records involved in the failed message creation.
    • &3 &4: Additional parameters that may provide further details such as error codes, message types, or processing steps.

    Common causes include:

    1. Configuration issues: Incorrect or incomplete partner profiles, message types, or port definitions.
    2. Master data problems: Missing or inconsistent master data required for message creation.
    3. Authorization issues: The user or process does not have the necessary authorizations to create the message.
    4. Technical problems: Issues with the communication layer, such as ALE distribution model inconsistencies or IDoc processing errors.
    5. Data inconsistencies: The data records to be sent contain errors or do not meet the required format or validation rules.

    Solution / Troubleshooting Steps:

    1. Check the detailed error log:

      • Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to display the IDoc and check the status and error details.
      • Look for specific error messages or status codes related to the failed message creation.
    2. Verify partner profiles and message types:

      • Use transaction WE20 to check the partner profile settings.
      • Ensure the outbound parameters (message type, port, partner number) are correctly maintained.
    3. Check the distribution model:

      • Use transaction BD64 to verify that the distribution model is correctly maintained and activated.
      • Ensure the message type and logical system assignments are correct.
    4. Review master data and application data:

      • Check if the data records involved are complete and valid.
      • Correct any inconsistencies or missing mandatory fields.
    5. Check authorizations:

      • Ensure the user or background job running the message creation has the necessary authorizations.
    6. Reprocess or recreate the message:

      • After fixing the root cause, try to recreate the message.
      • Use transaction WE19 to test IDoc creation manually if needed.
