  Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message WG080 - Order confirmation not necessary:
  
  SAP Message: WG080 - Order confirmation not necessary
  
  Cause:
  This message appears when you try to create or process an order confirmation for a production order or process order in SAP, but the system determines that an order confirmation is not required for that particular order.
  This can happen because:
  
  The order is set up in such a way that confirmations are not needed (e.g., the order type or order parameters specify no confirmations).
  The order has already been fully confirmed or closed.
  The confirmation indicator in the order header or operation level is set to "No confirmation required."
  The system settings or master data (order type, routing, control key) indicate that confirmations are not necessary.
  
  
  Explanation:
  In SAP Production Planning (PP), order confirmations are used to record the progress of production orders. However, not all orders require confirmations. For example, some orders might be purely informational or for planning purposes only, or the process might be controlled differently.
  When you attempt to enter a confirmation for such an order, SAP issues the WG080 message to inform you that the confirmation step is not applicable.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve or handle this message, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Order Type Settings:
  
  Go to transaction OPJH or OPK4 (depending on your SAP version) to review the order type configuration.
  Verify if the order type is set to require confirmations.
  If confirmations are not needed for this order type, then the message is expected behavior.
  
  
  
  Check Control Key in Routing:
  
  The control key assigned to the routing operations controls whether confirmations are required.
  Use transaction CA02 to check the routing and see if the control key has the confirmation indicator set.
  If the control key does not require confirmation, then no confirmation can be entered.
  
  
  
  Check Confirmation Indicator in Order:
  
  In the production order, check the confirmation indicator at the header or operation level.
  If it is set to "No confirmation required," then the system will not allow confirmations.
  
  
  
  Check Order Status:
  
  If the order is already fully confirmed or closed, no further confirmations are necessary.
  Use transaction CO02 to check the order status.
  
  
  
  If Confirmation is Actually Needed:
  
  If you believe confirmations should be possible for this order, adjust the order type or routing control key to require confirmations.
  Alternatively, create a new order with the correct settings.
