  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG049 - Order processing cancelled for mat. no. & ?

    The SAP error message:

    WG049: Order processing cancelled for mat. no. &


    Meaning / Cause:

    This message indicates that the processing of a production or process order has been cancelled or stopped for the specified material number. The cancellation can occur due to various reasons such as:

    • The order is locked or has been deleted.
    • The order status does not allow further processing (e.g., it is already technically completed or closed).
    • There are inconsistencies or missing data in the order.
    • The material master or related master data is incomplete or incorrect.
    • System settings or user authorizations prevent processing.
    • The order is referenced in a way that conflicts with current processing (e.g., order is already confirmed or goods movement is blocked).

    Common Causes in Detail:

    1. Order Status Issues:
      The order might be in a status that does not allow further processing (e.g., TECO - technically completed, CLSD - closed).

    2. Material Master Issues:
      The material number might be invalid, blocked, or missing required data for order processing.

    3. Authorization Problems:
      The user might not have the necessary authorization to process the order.

    4. Configuration or Customizing Issues:
      Incorrect settings in order types, number ranges, or plant data.

    5. Locking or Deletion:
      The order might be locked by another user or process, or it has been deleted.


    How to Solve:

    1. Check Order Status:

      • Use transaction CO02 (Change Order) or CO03 (Display Order) to check the status of the order.
      • If the order is TECO or CLSD, you cannot process it further unless you reverse the status (if business allows).
    2. Verify Material Master Data:

      • Check the material master (MM03) for the material number mentioned.
      • Ensure the material is not blocked for production or sales.
      • Verify that all required views (e.g., MRP, Work Scheduling) are maintained.
    3. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify that the user has the necessary roles and authorizations to process the order.
    4. Check for Locks or Deletion:

      • Use transaction SM12 to check for locks on the order.
      • Confirm the order still exists and has not been deleted.
    5. Review Customizing Settings:

      • Check order type configuration in SPRO under Production -> Shop Floor Control -> Order -> Order Types.
      • Verify number ranges and other relevant settings.
    6. Check for Related Messages or Logs:

      • Look for preceding or subsequent error messages that might give more context.
      • Use transaction SM21 (system log) or ST22 (dump analysis) if needed.

    Additional Notes:

    • The ampersand (&) in the message is a placeholder for the material number.
    • This message is often informational or warning, indicating that the system has stopped processing the order for the given material.
    • If this occurs during a batch job or automated process, check the job logs for more details.
    • Sometimes, re-creating or copying the order can resolve inconsistencies.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
