    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to perform a transaction or process in SAP that references a purchase order (PO) number for a specific material, but the system cannot find a purchase order with that number for the given material in the system.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Entering a PO number that does not exist in the system.
    • Entering a PO number that exists but is not linked to the specified material.
    • Typographical errors in the PO number or material number.
    • The PO might have been deleted or archived.
    • The material number might be incorrect or not assigned to the PO.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Verify the Purchase Order Number:

      • Check if the PO number entered is correct.
      • Use transaction ME23N (Display Purchase Order) to search for the PO number.
      • Confirm that the PO exists and is active.
    2. Check the Material Number:

      • Verify the material number entered is correct.
      • Confirm that the material is part of the PO line items.
    3. Check PO Line Items:

      • In ME23N, look at the line items of the PO to ensure the material is listed.
      • If the material is not part of the PO, you cannot reference it in the transaction.
    4. Correct the Data Entry:

      • If you find any mistakes in the PO number or material number, correct them.
    5. If PO is Missing:

      • If the PO does not exist, create a new purchase order for the material using ME21N.
    6. Check Authorizations:

      • Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to view or process the PO.
