  SAP Error Message:
  
  WG094 - Delivery date outside factory calendar for material &, document &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the delivery date entered for a material in a delivery document falls on a date that is not valid according to the factory calendar assigned to the plant or storage location. The factory calendar defines working days, holidays, and non-working days for a plant. If the delivery date is on a non-working day (e.g., weekend or holiday), SAP raises this error to prevent scheduling deliveries on invalid dates.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Each plant in SAP is assigned a factory calendar that specifies working and non-working days.
  When creating or processing a delivery, the system checks the delivery date against this calendar.
  If the delivery date is outside the working days defined in the factory calendar, the system issues the WG094 error.
  This ensures that deliveries are planned only on valid working days, avoiding scheduling conflicts or operational issues.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Delivery Date:
  
  Verify the delivery date entered in the delivery document.
  Ensure it falls on a working day according to the factory calendar.
  
  
  
  Review Factory Calendar:
  
  Go to transaction SCAL (Factory Calendar Maintenance).
  Check the factory calendar assigned to the plant/storage location.
  Verify if the delivery date is marked as a working day or a holiday/non-working day.
  
  
  
  Adjust Delivery Date:
  
  Change the delivery date to a valid working day as per the factory calendar.
  This can be done manually during delivery creation or modification.
  
  
  
  Modify Factory Calendar (if appropriate):
  
  If the delivery date should be valid (e.g., a special working day), update the factory calendar to include that date as a working day.
  This should be done carefully, considering company policies and operational constraints.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master and Plant Assignment:
  
  Ensure the correct plant and storage location are assigned to the material.
  The factory calendar is linked to the plant, so incorrect plant assignment can cause this error.

  Notes:
