  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WJ220 - No materials chosen ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WJ220 - No materials chosen


    Cause:

    This warning message typically appears in SAP when a user attempts to execute a process or transaction that requires at least one material to be selected or entered, but no material has been chosen or specified. For example, this can happen in transactions related to material planning, goods movements, or batch processing where the system expects material data input but finds none.


    Common Scenarios:

    • Running a report or planning run without selecting any materials.
    • Attempting to create or process a document (e.g., production order, purchase order) without specifying materials.
    • Using batch input or mass processing tools where the material selection step was skipped.

    Solution:

    1. Select Materials:
      Ensure that you have selected or entered at least one valid material number before proceeding. Check the input fields or selection criteria for material entries.

    2. Check Selection Criteria:
      If you are running a report or planning run, verify that your selection criteria include materials. Adjust filters or selection parameters to include the relevant materials.

    3. Data Validation:
      Confirm that the material master data exists and is active in the system. Sometimes, the material number entered might be incorrect or inactive.

    4. User Training:
      Make sure users understand the requirement to select materials in the given transaction or process.

    5. Technical Checks:
      If the message appears unexpectedly, check for custom enhancements or user exits that might be enforcing material selection.
