    SAP Message WP513:

    Text: "The EAN(s) has(have) been deleted successfully."


    1. Cause:

    • This message is an informational confirmation rather than an error.
    • It appears when you delete one or more EANs (European Article Numbers) or barcodes assigned to a material or product in SAP.
    • The system confirms that the deletion of the EAN(s) was successful.
    • Typically encountered in transactions related to material master data maintenance, such as MM02 (Change Material) or when managing barcodes in logistics or sales documents.

    2. Solution:

    • Since WP513 is a success message, no corrective action is needed.
    • It simply informs the user that the deletion process was completed without issues.
    • If the deletion was unintended, you may need to reassign the EAN(s) to the material.
    • To assign or maintain EANs, use transaction MM02 ? go to the Additional Data tab ? EAN/UPC section.
    • If you want to avoid seeing this message repeatedly, check your message control settings or user-specific message handling.

    3. Related Information:

    • EAN (European Article Number): A barcode standard used internationally to identify products uniquely.
    • In SAP, EANs are stored in the material master and used in various processes like sales, inventory management, and logistics.
    • Deleting an EAN means that the barcode will no longer be recognized for that material in scanning or transaction processes.
    • The message class for WP513 is usually WP (related to Warehouse Management or Logistics).
    • If you encounter issues with EANs not being recognized after deletion, verify the material master data and barcode assignments.
    • For mass maintenance of EANs, SAP provides tools like LSMW or mass change transactions.
