• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG007 - Order date missing in doc. header for req.no & . Today's date will be set ?

  The SAP error message:
  WG007: Order date missing in doc. header for req.no & . Today's date will be set
  
  
  Cause:
  This message occurs when a purchase requisition (PR) or a related document is created or processed without an order date (also called document date) in the header. The system expects an order date to be present for proper processing and validation. Since the order date is missing, SAP automatically assigns the current date (today's date) as the order date to proceed.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The order date (document date) is a mandatory field in many SAP documents such as purchase requisitions, purchase orders, and goods receipts.
  It is used for determining pricing conditions, delivery schedules, and for reporting purposes.
  If the order date is missing in the document header, SAP cannot correctly process the document.
  To avoid processing errors, SAP sets the order date to the current date and issues this warning message.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Purchase Requisition or Document Header:
