• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WFCS091 - Items deleted (table: &1; plant: &2) ?

  Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WFCS091 Items deleted (table: &1; plant: &2)
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This message typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or Material Management processes when certain items (records) in a database table related to a specific plant have been deleted. The placeholders &1 and &2 are dynamically replaced at runtime with the actual table name and plant code respectively.
  Possible causes include:
  
  The workflow or process is trying to access or process items in a table for a given plant, but those items have been deleted or are no longer available.
  Data inconsistency or deletion of master data/material data related to the plant.
  A background job or user action has removed entries that the workflow expected to find.
  Custom code or user exit might have deleted entries without proper synchronization.
  
  
  Where it occurs:
  
  During workflow execution related to material master, plant data, or inventory management.
  When a workflow step tries to read or update data that has been deleted.
  In processes involving tables like MARD (Storage Location Data for Material), MARC (Plant Data for Material), or other plant-specific tables.
  
  
  Solution / How to fix:
  
  
  Check the table and plant data:
  
  Identify the table name and plant code from the error message.
  Use transaction SE16/SE16N or SE11 to check if the relevant entries exist for the plant.
  If the entries are missing, determine why they were deleted.
  
  
  
  Restore missing data if necessary:
  
  If the data was deleted unintentionally, restore it from backup or recreate the entries.
  For material master data, use transaction MM01/MM02 to recreate or update plant-specific data.
  
  
  
  Check workflow/custom code:
  
  Review the workflow steps or custom code that accesses the table.
  Ensure that the code handles cases where data might be missing or deleted.
  Add error handling or checks to avoid processing deleted items.
  
  
  
  Check authorizations:
  
  Sometimes, missing authorizations can cause the system to behave as if data is missing.
  Verify that the user or workflow agent has the necessary authorizations to read the table entries.
  
  
  
  Check for recent changes:
  
  Investigate recent changes in master data, workflows, or custom developments that might have caused the deletion.
