    1. Cause

It indicates that there is a problem or a specific status during the outbound delivery or shipping process for the plant identified by &1 (which is replaced by the actual plant code at runtime).

    • Common causes include:

      • Missing or incorrect configuration for the plant in outbound delivery processing.
      • Incomplete master data for the plant (e.g., shipping point determination, route, or transportation planning data).
      • Issues with integration between SAP modules (e.g., SD and WM or LE).
      • Errors in the outbound delivery creation or goods issue posting for the plant.
      • Custom enhancements or user exits that trigger this message when certain conditions are met.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the issue indicated by WES_OUTBOUND123 Processing for plant &1, follow these steps:

    • Check Plant Configuration:

      • Check shipping point determination for the plant (transaction OVXD or SPRO path: Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination).
      • Ensure routes and transportation zones are properly assigned.
    • Verify Master Data:

      • Confirm that the plant has all necessary master data for outbound processing, such as:
        • Shipping conditions
        • Loading group
        • Transportation planning point
    • Review Outbound Delivery Process:

      • Check if outbound deliveries can be created for the plant.
      • Look for any errors during delivery creation or goods issue posting.
    • Check Custom Code/User Exits:

      • Debug the process to identify why the message is triggered.
    • Analyze Logs and Application Traces:

      • Use transaction SLG1 to check application logs related to outbound processing.
