• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND114 - No sales receipt text could be defined for material &1 ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WES_OUTBOUND114 No sales receipt text could be defined for material &1
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to generate a sales receipt or outbound delivery document, but it cannot find the required sales receipt text for the specified material (&1 is the placeholder for the material number). The sales receipt text is typically a predefined text that should be assigned to the material to be printed or included in outbound documents.
  In other words, the system expects a text (usually a long text or a standard text) linked to the material to be used in the sales receipt or delivery note, but this text is missing or not maintained.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain Sales Receipt Text for the Material:
  
  Go to the material master record.
  Navigate to the Sales: General/Plant view or the relevant text maintenance area.
  Maintain the sales receipt text or long text that should appear on the sales receipt or delivery document.
  
  
  
  Check Text Determination Procedure:
  
  Verify the text determination procedure assigned to the sales document or delivery document.
  Ensure that the procedure includes the step to fetch the sales receipt text for the material.
  This can be checked in customizing under:
  
  SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Text Control -> Text Determination
  
  
  
  
  
  Check if the Text Exists in the System:
  
  Use transaction SO10 (Standard Text) or ME23N (for purchase order texts) or relevant transactions to check if the text exists.
  If the text is missing, create or assign the appropriate text.
  
  
  
  Check Output Type Configuration:
  
  Sometimes, the output type (e.g., for delivery note or sales receipt) requires a text to be present.
  Verify the output type configuration in SPRO under:
  
  Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output Control -> Output Determination
  
  
  Ensure that the output type is correctly configured to handle texts.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  This error is common in scenarios where customized or enhanced output forms (like delivery notes, sales receipts) require specific texts to be printed.
  The error message is part of the WES_OUTBOUND message class, which relates to outbound delivery and shipping processes.
  If you are using IDocs or EDI for outbound delivery, missing texts can cause issues in document generation or transmission.
