  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPOSN002 - Consumption of material & could not be transferred to replenishment ?

    The SAP error message WPOSN002: Consumption of material & could not be transferred to replenishment typically occurs in the context of warehouse management (WM) or inventory management (IM) processes, especially when dealing with consumption postings and replenishment in a warehouse.


    Cause

    This error usually indicates that the system attempted to post a consumption of a material (e.g., goods issue or usage) but could not transfer this consumption data to the replenishment process. The main reasons include:

    1. Replenishment Control Issues:

      • The system is configured to trigger replenishment automatically when stock is consumed, but the replenishment cannot be created due to missing or incorrect configuration.
    2. Missing or Incorrect Replenishment Parameters:

      • The storage type or storage bin does not have replenishment control set up.
      • The replenishment strategy or control indicator is not maintained or incorrectly maintained.
    3. Stock or Master Data Issues:

      • The material master or warehouse master data is incomplete or inconsistent.
      • The stock in the source bin is insufficient or blocked.
    4. Process or Customizing Errors:

      • The system cannot determine the replenishment source or destination.
      • The replenishment strategy is not assigned or not valid for the material/storage type.
    5. Technical or Integration Issues:

      • Problems in the interface between Inventory Management and Warehouse Management.
      • Missing or incorrect movement types or transfer postings.

    Solution

    To resolve the WPOSN002 error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Replenishment Control Settings:

      • Go to SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Strategies ? Replenishment ? Define Replenishment Control.
      • Verify that the storage type and storage bin have replenishment control indicators assigned.
      • Ensure the replenishment control indicator is correctly configured for the material and warehouse.
    2. Verify Replenishment Strategy:

      • Check the replenishment strategy assigned to the storage type or material.
      • Make sure the replenishment strategy is active and correctly maintained.
    3. Review Material Master and Warehouse Master Data:

      • Confirm that the material master data (WM views) is complete and consistent.
      • Check that the warehouse master data (storage types, bins) is properly maintained.
    4. Check Stock and Bin Status:

      • Verify that stock is available and not blocked in the source bin.
      • Ensure that the destination bin for replenishment is valid and has capacity.
    5. Analyze Movement Types and Posting:

      • Confirm that the movement types used for consumption and replenishment are correctly configured.
      • Check if the system can create transfer orders or transfer requirements for replenishment.
    6. Run Diagnostics and Logs:

      • Use transaction codes like LT24 (Display Transfer Orders) or LT23 (Display Transfer Requirements) to check replenishment documents.
      • Check application logs (transaction SLG1) for detailed error messages.
    7. Customizing and User Exits:

      • If custom logic or user exits are implemented, verify that they do not block replenishment postings.
