  SAP Error Message:
  WGDS_PROCESS665: Could not find orders assigned to supplier &1 with reference &2
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs in the SAP system when the Goods Receipt (GR) or related process tries to find purchase orders (POs) assigned to a specific supplier (vendor) with a given reference number, but no matching purchase orders are found.
  In other words:
  
  The system is expecting to find one or more purchase orders linked to the supplier (vendor) number &1 and the reference number &2 (which could be an external reference like a vendor's delivery note number or invoice reference), but it cannot find any such orders in the system.
  Common causes include:
  
  The purchase order does not exist or has not been created for the supplier with the given reference.
  The reference number used in the transaction does not match the reference number in the purchase order.
  The purchase order is assigned to a different supplier/vendor.
  The purchase order has been deleted or blocked.
  The document or transaction is using incorrect or outdated supplier or reference data.
  The system is looking for orders in the wrong company code or purchasing organization.
  
  
  Where does this error typically occur?
  
  During Goods Receipt (MIGO) or Invoice Verification (MIRO) processes.
  When processing inbound deliveries or supplier references.
  In scenarios involving automatic matching of supplier references to purchase orders.
  
  
  Solution / How to fix:
  
  
  Verify Supplier and Reference Data:
  
  Check that the supplier number (&1) is correct.
  Verify the reference number (&2) used in the transaction matches the reference number on the purchase order.
  
  
  
  Check Purchase Orders:
  
  Use transaction ME23N to display purchase orders for the supplier.
  Search for purchase orders with the given reference number.
  Confirm that the PO exists, is active, and assigned to the correct supplier.
  
  
  
  Check Purchase Order Status:
  
  Ensure the PO is not deleted, blocked, or fully invoiced/received.
  Check if the PO is released and valid for the posting date.
  
  
  
  Check Document Flow and Settings:
  
  Confirm that the company code and purchasing organization are correct.
  Verify if the reference number is stored in the correct field (e.g., vendor reference, delivery note number).
  
  
  
  Correct the Reference or Supplier Data:
  
  If the reference number is incorrect, correct it in the transaction.
  If the supplier is wrong, select the correct supplier.
  
  
  
  If the PO does not exist:
  
  Create a purchase order for the supplier with the correct reference.
  Or, if the process is incorrect, adjust the process to use the correct PO or supplier.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing / Configuration:
  
  In some cases, the system might be configured to match references strictly.
  Review the settings in Materials Management (MM) or Logistics Invoice Verification (LIV) related to reference matching.
