  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND304 - No plants could be determined for promotion &1 ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WES_OUTBOUND304 No plants could be determined for promotion &1


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs in SAP systems integrated with SAP Hybris Marketing (or SAP Commerce) or in scenarios involving outbound promotions or campaign data distribution. The message indicates that during the outbound processing of a promotion (campaign), the system could not determine any valid plant(s) associated with the promotion.

    Possible reasons include:

    • The promotion master data does not have any plants assigned or linked.
    • The plant assignment is missing or incomplete in the relevant customizing or master data.
    • The integration scenario expects plant data for the promotion, but none is maintained.
    • The promotion is assigned to a sales organization or distribution channel that does not have plants defined.
    • Data inconsistencies or missing configuration in the outbound profile or distribution model.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Promotion Master Data:

      • Verify that the promotion in question has plants assigned.
      • In the promotion master data (e.g., in SAP CRM or SAP ERP), ensure that the plants relevant for the promotion are maintained.
    2. Verify Plant Assignments:

      • Check the assignment of plants to sales organizations, distribution channels, or divisions as applicable.
      • Use transaction codes like OVX5 (Assign Plants to Sales Organizations) or relevant customizing paths.
    3. Review Outbound Profile / Distribution Model:

      • Check the outbound profile or distribution model used for promotions.
      • Ensure that the profile includes plant data or that the mapping logic correctly fetches plant information.
    4. Check Integration Settings:

      • If the promotion data is sent to an external system (e.g., SAP Hybris Marketing), verify the integration settings.
      • Ensure that the outbound interface expects plant data and that the source system provides it.
    5. Data Consistency Checks:

      • Run consistency checks on the promotion data.
      • Look for missing or incomplete entries related to plants.
    6. Debugging / Logs:

      • Check application logs or use debugging tools to trace how the system tries to determine plants.
      • Identify where the logic fails to find plants.

    Related Information:

    • Transactions / Tools:

    • SAP Notes / KBAs:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WES_OUTBOUND304 or promotion plant assignment issues.
