• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WH056 - According to comm. profile, no data interchange possible with plant & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WH056 - According to comm. profile, no data interchange possible with plant &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to perform data interchange (such as sending or receiving IDocs) with a plant, but the communication profile for that plant is not properly maintained or does not allow data interchange. Essentially, the system checks the communication profile assigned to the plant and finds that no data interchange is configured or permitted.
  
  Explanation:
  
  In SAP, communication profiles define how data is exchanged between systems or organizational units.
  Each plant can be assigned a communication profile that specifies whether and how data interchange (e.g., IDocs, EDI) is allowed.
  If the communication profile for the plant does not allow data interchange, or if the profile is missing or incorrectly assigned, the system raises this error when attempting to send or receive data related to that plant.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Communication Profile for the Plant:
  
  Go to transaction SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Communication ? Define Communication Profile.
  Verify if the plant in question has a communication profile assigned.
  
  
  
  Assign or Correct the Communication Profile:
  
  If no communication profile is assigned to the plant, assign the correct one that allows data interchange.
  If the profile is assigned but does not allow data interchange, modify the profile to enable the required data exchange.
  
  
  
  Check Plant Master Data:
  
  Use transaction OX10 (or relevant plant maintenance transaction) to check the plant master data.
  Ensure the communication profile field is correctly maintained.
  
  
  
  Verify Partner Profiles and IDoc Configuration:
  
  Check the partner profiles (WE20) and ensure that the plant is correctly linked to the partner and communication settings.
  Confirm that the message types and process codes are correctly configured for the plant.
  
  
  
  Test the Data Interchange:
  
  After correcting the communication profile, test the data interchange process again to confirm the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  OX10 – Maintain Plant
  SPRO – Customizing (for communication profile settings)
  WE20 – Partner Profiles (IDoc configuration)
  WE02 / WE05 – IDoc monitoring
  
  
  
  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to communication profiles and plant data interchange for any known issues or patches.
  
  
  
  Documentation:

  Summary:
  The error WH056 indicates that the plant's communication profile does not permit data interchange. To fix it, ensure the plant has a valid communication profile assigned that allows data exchange, and verify all related IDoc and partner profile settings.
