    Items deleted


    Cause

    The error message WR098 typically occurs in SAP when you are processing a document (such as a goods receipt, invoice, or delivery) and some line items have been deleted or removed from the document during processing. This can happen due to:

    • Manual deletion of line items in the document.
    • Automatic deletion triggered by system checks or validations.
    • Inconsistencies or errors in the item data causing the system to remove the item.
    • User actions during document entry or change that remove items.
    • Custom enhancements or user exits that delete items based on certain conditions.

    In many cases, the message is informational, indicating that some items you expected to be processed are no longer present.

    • When processing inbound or outbound documents where item consistency is checked.
    • In inventory management or materials management transactions where item data is validated.

    Solution / How to Resolve

    1. Check Document Items:

      • Review the document to verify which items have been deleted.
      • Confirm if the deletion was intentional or accidental.
    2. Re-enter Deleted Items:

      • If items were deleted by mistake, re-add them to the document before saving or posting.
    3. Check User Actions:

      • Ensure that users are not unintentionally deleting items.
      • Provide training or restrict authorizations if necessary.
    4. Review Custom Code:

      • If there are user exits, BADIs, or enhancements, check if any logic deletes items.
      • Adjust or debug the custom code to prevent unwanted deletions.

      • Sometimes items are deleted due to data inconsistencies (e.g., missing master data, invalid material numbers).
      • Correct master data or fix inconsistencies.
    6. System Logs and Debugging:

      • Use transaction codes like SM13 (update errors), SM21 (system log), or ST22 (dump analysis) to check for related errors.
