  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WMOD023 - No variants found for generic material &1 ?

    The SAP error message WMOD023 ("No variants found for generic material &1") typically occurs in the context of working with generic materials in the SAP system, particularly in the Warehouse Management (WM) module. This error indicates that the system could not find any specific variants associated with the generic material you are trying to use.

    Cause:

    1. Generic Material Definition: The material you are trying to process is defined as a generic material, which means it does not have specific variants assigned to it.
    2. Missing Variants: There may be no variants created for the generic material in the system. Variants are specific instances of a generic material that have unique characteristics.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master or in the warehouse management settings that prevent the system from recognizing the variants.
    4. Data Inconsistency: There could be inconsistencies in the data related to the material master or the variant assignment.

    Solution:

    1. Check Material Master: Verify the material master record for the generic material. Ensure that the variants are correctly defined and assigned.

      • Use transaction code MM03 to display the material master and check the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Sales, Purchasing).
    2. Create Variants: If no variants exist, you may need to create them. This can be done through the material master transaction (MM01 for creating a new material or MM02 for changing an existing one).

      • Ensure that the variants have the necessary attributes and are linked to the generic material.
    3. Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the Warehouse Management module to ensure that it is set up correctly to handle generic materials and their variants.

      • This may involve reviewing the settings in the IMG (Implementation Guide) under Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management.
    4. Data Consistency Check: Run a data consistency check to identify any inconsistencies in the material master data. This can help identify issues that may be causing the error.

    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on managing generic materials and variants.

    6. Contact Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP support for further assistance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM01, MM02, MM03, and WM01 (for warehouse management).

    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message, as they may provide specific fixes or patches.
