  SAP Error Message: WP304 - IDoc & processed
  Message Text:
  
  IDoc & processed
  
  Meaning / Cause
  
  The message WP304 typically indicates that the IDoc (Intermediate Document) has already been processed successfully.
  This is an informational or warning message rather than an error.
  It usually appears when you try to process or reprocess an IDoc that has already been processed.
  The system is informing you that the IDoc status is not new or pending but already completed.
  
  
  When does this occur?
  
  When you attempt to reprocess an IDoc that has status 53 (successfully processed).
  When you try to post or trigger an action on an IDoc that has already been handled.
  During manual reprocessing or in custom programs/scripts that handle IDocs.
  
  
  Solution / How to handle
  
  
  Check the IDoc status:
  
  Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to display the IDoc and verify its status.
  
  Status 53 means the IDoc was processed successfully.
  
  
  Avoid reprocessing:
  
  If the IDoc is already processed, there is no need to process it again unless you want to correct or re-trigger the business process.
  
  
  If reprocessing is required:  
  
  You may need to reset the IDoc status to a previous status (e.g., 30 - ready for dispatch) using transaction BD87 or program RBDMANI2.  
  Be cautious when resetting statuses to avoid duplicate postings or inconsistent data.
  
  
  
  Check for duplicates:
  
  Sometimes, duplicate IDocs are created and processed. Verify if the IDoc is a duplicate and handle accordingly.
  
  
  Review custom code or interfaces:
  
  If this message appears unexpectedly, check if any custom programs or interfaces are trying to process already processed IDocs.
