• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WP314 - Document line & not assigned to IDoc area ?

  The SAP error message:
  WP314 Document line & not assigned to IDoc area
  typically occurs during IDoc processing, especially when generating or processing IDocs related to sales documents (like orders, deliveries, billing documents) in the SD module.
  
  Cause
  This error means that a particular document line item (e.g., a sales order line) is not assigned to any IDoc area segment. In other words, the system is trying to create or process an IDoc for a document, but it cannot find the corresponding IDoc segment definition or assignment for the line item in the IDoc structure.
  Common reasons include:
  
  Missing or incorrect configuration in the IDoc segment assignment for the document type or item category.
  The item category or document line is not maintained in the IDoc partner profile or segment mapping.
  Custom or non-standard item categories that are not assigned to any IDoc segment.
  Incomplete or incorrect partner profile settings for the message type or IDoc type.
  The IDoc processing function module or user exit does not handle the particular line item.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Item Category Assignment:
  
  Verify that the item category of the document line is assigned to an IDoc segment in the IDoc segment assignment customizing.
  Transaction: WE30 (IDoc Segment Editor) and WE31 (IDoc Segment Definition)
  Also check the assignment in the customizing path:
  SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions -> IDoc Interface -> Assign Item Categories to IDoc Segments
  or for sales documents:
  SPRO -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Output Control -> Output Determination -> Assign Item Categories to IDoc Segments
  
  
  
  
  Check Partner Profile and Message Type:
  
  Use transaction WE20 to check the partner profile.
  Ensure the correct message type and IDoc type are assigned.
  Verify that the segments expected for the document line are included in the message type.
  
  
  
  Check IDoc Segment Mapping:
  
  Use transaction WE82 to check the message type to IDoc type assignment.
  Use WE57 to check the segment assignment to message types.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Item Categories:
  
  If custom item categories are used, ensure they are properly assigned to IDoc segments.
  If necessary, extend the IDoc segment structure or create user exits to handle these items.
  
  
  
  Debug or Check User Exits:
  
  If the error occurs during IDoc generation, debug the function module generating the IDoc (e.g., SD_SALES_DOCUMENT_CREATE or related).
  Check for user exits or BADIs that might influence segment assignment.
