  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WP608 - Delivery &/& cannot be found for material & ?

    The SAP error message:

    WP608 Delivery &/& cannot be found for material &

    typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Inventory Management (IM) processes, especially when dealing with deliveries and material movements.


    Meaning / Cause

    • The system is trying to find a delivery document (usually an outbound delivery or transfer order) for a specific material but cannot locate it.
    • The placeholders &/& represent the delivery document number and item number, and the last & is the material number.
    • This error usually happens when:
      • The delivery document referenced does not exist or has been deleted.
      • The delivery document exists but does not contain the specified material.
      • The delivery document is not yet created or not yet posted in the system.
      • There is a mismatch or inconsistency between the delivery and the material master or stock.
      • The system is trying to process a warehouse task or transfer order referencing a delivery that is not valid or incomplete.

    When does it occur?

    • During warehouse task creation or confirmation.
    • When posting goods issue or goods receipt related to deliveries.
    • When processing transfer orders or picking/putaway activities.
    • During integration between SD (Sales & Distribution) and WM modules.

    How to solve it?

    1. Check the delivery document:

      • Verify if the delivery document number and item exist in the system (transaction VL03N for outbound deliveries).
      • Confirm that the delivery contains the material in question.
      • Check if the delivery is in the correct status (e.g., not deleted or blocked).
    2. Check material master and stock:

      • Ensure the material exists and is correctly maintained.
      • Verify stock availability for the material in the relevant warehouse/storage location.
    3. Check warehouse documents:

      • Look for transfer orders or warehouse tasks linked to the delivery.
      • Confirm that the warehouse documents are consistent and not corrupted.
    4. Recreate or correct delivery:

      • If the delivery is missing or incorrect, recreate or correct it.
      • If the delivery was deleted, you may need to create a new delivery document.
    5. Check integration settings:

      • Verify the integration between SD and WM modules.
      • Ensure that delivery creation and warehouse task creation are properly configured.
    6. Debug or check logs:

      • Use transaction codes like /n/SCWM/TO_CONF or /n/SCWM/PRDI to check warehouse tasks and deliveries.
      • Check application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages.
