  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND106 - No transfer-relevant plants found ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WES_OUTBOUND106 No transfer-relevant plants found


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system tries to determine plants relevant for transfer postings or outbound deliveries but cannot find any plants configured or assigned that meet the criteria for the transfer.

    Common causes include:

    • No plants have been assigned or maintained in the relevant customizing settings for the outbound process.
    • The plant(s) involved in the outbound delivery or transfer posting are not marked as "transfer-relevant" in the system.
    • Incorrect or missing configuration in the integration between SAP ERP (ECC or S/4HANA) and EWM or WM.
    • The organizational data (such as shipping point, plant, storage location) is not properly maintained or linked.
    • The selection criteria or filters used in the outbound process exclude all plants.

    Solution:

    To resolve the error, perform the following checks and actions:

    1. Check Plant Configuration:

      • Go to SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination.
      • Verify that the plants involved are correctly maintained and assigned to the shipping points.
    2. Verify Transfer-Relevant Plant Settings:

      • In the customizing for Warehouse Management or EWM, ensure that the plants are marked as relevant for transfer postings.
      • For EWM, check the integration model and ensure that the plants are correctly replicated and assigned.
    3. Check Organizational Data:

      • Verify that the plant, storage location, and shipping point are correctly maintained in the material master and delivery documents.
      • Ensure that the outbound delivery document references the correct plant.
    4. Review Integration Settings:

      • If using EWM, check the CIF (Core Interface) settings to ensure that the plant data is correctly transferred and synchronized.
      • Check the distribution model and integration model for completeness.
    5. Check User Exits or Custom Code:

      • If there are any user exits or enhancements influencing plant determination, verify that they are working correctly and not filtering out all plants.
    6. Test with Different Data:

      • Try creating an outbound delivery or transfer posting with a different plant to see if the issue persists.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SPRO – Customizing
      • VL01N / VL02N – Create/Change Outbound Delivery
      • LSMW / CIF – For data transfer and integration checks
      • OMWB – Warehouse Management settings
    • SAP Notes:

      • Check SAP Notes related to WES_OUTBOUND106 for any patches or known issues.
    • Documentation:

      • SAP Help Portal sections on Warehouse Management and Extended Warehouse Management integration.
      • SAP Community forums for similar issues.

    If after these checks the problem persists, consider enabling debug or detailed logging to trace how the system determines transfer-relevant plants during the outbound process.


    Summary:
    The error "No transfer-relevant plants found" means the system cannot find any plants configured or assigned for the transfer or outbound process. The solution involves verifying plant assignments, customizing settings, organizational data, and integration configurations to ensure plants are correctly marked and available for transfer postings.
