• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WM805 - There is no check on whether the object exists in a master data table ?

  The SAP error message WM805 indicates that there is no check on whether a specific object exists in a master data table. This typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Inventory Management (IM) processes, where the system expects to find a certain master data record (like a material, storage location, or warehouse) but cannot confirm its existence.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Master Data: The most common cause is that the required master data (e.g., material master, storage location, or warehouse) has not been created or is not properly maintained in the system.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as incorrect entries or missing links between related master data records.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the Warehouse Management module may lead to the system not being able to validate the existence of the object.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the master data, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Master Data: Verify that the required master data exists in the system. For example, if the error pertains to a material, check the material master record in transaction MM03.
  Create Missing Data: If the required master data does not exist, create it using the appropriate transaction codes (e.g., MM01 for material master).
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks to identify any discrepancies in the master data. This can often be done using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to inspect the relevant tables.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the Warehouse Management module to ensure that they are set up correctly. This may involve reviewing settings in transaction SPRO.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the master data. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the WM805 error for any specific guidance or patches that may address the issue.
