• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG019 - Delivery date for material & cannot be found. Set system date ?

  The SAP error message WG019: "Delivery date for material & cannot be found. Set system date" typically occurs in the context of availability check or requirements planning when the system cannot determine a valid delivery date for a material.
  
  Cause:
  
  The system tries to find a delivery date for a material based on the current system date or a requested date.
  If the system date is set incorrectly (e.g., in the past or a date for which no valid planning data exists), the system cannot find a suitable delivery date.
  It can also happen if the material master data or MRP settings do not allow the system to calculate a delivery date (e.g., missing or incorrect lead times, no valid planning data, or no stock/receipts available).
  Sometimes, the error occurs if the system date is not set or is set to a date outside the valid planning horizon.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check and Set the System Date Correctly:
  
  Verify the current system date in SAP (transaction code STZAC or STZBC).
  Ensure the system date is set correctly and corresponds to the actual current date.
  If the system date is incorrect, coordinate with your Basis team to correct it.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Verify the material master (MM02) for correct MRP data:
  
  Check the MRP type.
  Check planned delivery times (in MRP 1 view).
  Check availability check settings.
  
  
  Ensure that the material has valid lead times and planning parameters.
  
  
  
  Check MRP and Availability Check Settings:
  
  Review the MRP run and availability check parameters.
  Ensure that the planning horizon and scheduling parameters are set correctly.
  Check if the material is flagged for availability check and that the checking rule is properly maintained.
  
  
  
  Check Stock and Receipts:
  
  Verify if there is stock or planned receipts for the material.
  If no stock or receipts exist, the system may not find a delivery date.
  
  
  
  Run MRP:
  
  Run MRP (MD01/MD02) to generate planned orders or purchase requisitions.
  This can help the system find a valid delivery date.
