  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WFRE_CON106 - Delivery Date was calculated from Order Date. Header = &1 Item = &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message WFRE_CON106:


    SAP Error Message:

    WFRE_CON106: Delivery Date was calculated from Order Date. Header = &1 Item = &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This message typically appears in the context of SAP Workflow or Sales and Distribution (SD) when the system calculates the Delivery Date based on the Order Date because the Delivery Date was not explicitly maintained or available.

    • The system tries to determine the delivery date for a sales order item.
    • If the delivery date is missing or cannot be derived from the schedule lines or other sources, SAP defaults to calculating it from the order date.
    • This is often a warning or informational message indicating that the delivery date might not be accurate or as expected because it was derived from the order date rather than from confirmed schedule lines or delivery schedules.

    Common Causes:

    1. Missing or incomplete schedule lines in the sales order item.
    2. No confirmed delivery date available in the sales order.
    3. Custom workflow or user exit logic that expects a delivery date but finds none, so SAP calculates it from the order date.
    4. Master data or configuration issues where delivery scheduling is not properly set up.
    5. The order date is used as a fallback when no other date is available.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check Schedule Lines:

      • Go to the sales order item and verify if schedule lines exist and have confirmed delivery dates.
      • If schedule lines are missing, add or correct them.
    2. Maintain Delivery Dates:

      • Ensure that the delivery date is maintained or confirmed in the sales order.
      • If the delivery date is missing, update it manually or fix the scheduling conditions.
    3. Review Configuration:

      • Check the delivery scheduling configuration in transaction OVZ9 or related customizing.
      • Ensure that the system is correctly set up to calculate delivery dates from schedule lines or other relevant data.
    4. Check Workflow or Custom Code:

      • If this message appears in a workflow context, review the workflow steps or user exits/enhancements that handle delivery dates.
      • Adjust the logic to handle cases where delivery dates are missing or to prompt users to enter valid dates.
    5. Communicate with Business Users:

      • Inform sales order processors to maintain schedule lines and delivery dates properly.
      • Provide training if necessary.

      • VA03 (Display Sales Order)

    • Tables:

      • VBAK (Sales Document: Header Data)
      • VBAP (Sales Document: Item Data)
      • VBEP (Sales Document: Schedule Line Data)
    • Notes / SAP KBAs:

      • Check SAP Notes related to delivery scheduling and sales order processing if the issue persists.
      • Sometimes, OSS notes provide patches or corrections for scheduling logic.

    Summary:

    The message WFRE_CON106 is an informational warning indicating that the delivery date was not explicitly set and was therefore calculated from the order date. To resolve this, ensure that schedule lines and delivery dates are properly maintained in the sales order, and review any custom logic or workflow that depends on these dates.
