  Message Text:
  
  No storage location data exists for storage location &1 for material &2
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when you try to perform a transaction or process that requires storage location data for a specific material, but the system cannot find any storage location data for the given material and storage location combination.
  In other words, the material master record does not have the storage location data maintained for the specified storage location.
  
  When Does It Occur?
  
  When you try to post goods movements (e.g., goods receipt, goods issue, transfer posting) involving a storage location that is not maintained in the material master.
  When you try to create or process inventory transactions for a storage location that is not assigned to the material.
  During MIGO, MB1A, MB1B, MB1C, or other inventory-related transactions.
  When the system tries to access stock data for a storage location that does not exist for the material.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to transaction MM02 (Change Material).
  Enter the material number (&2) and select the Plant.
  Navigate to the Storage Location Data view.
  Verify if the storage location (&1) is maintained for the material.
  
  
  
  Maintain Storage Location Data:
  
  If the storage location is missing, add the storage location data for the material.
  Enter the relevant stock data, such as stock levels, if necessary.
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  Check Plant and Storage Location Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the storage location (&1) is valid and assigned to the plant in the system.
  Use transaction OX09 to check storage locations assigned to the plant.
  
  
  
  Check User Input:
  
  Verify that the storage location entered during the transaction is correct and exists for the plant and material.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  Storage location data in the material master is essential for inventory management and stock postings.
  If you frequently work with multiple storage locations, ensure that all relevant storage locations are maintained in the material master.
  Sometimes, this error can also occur if the storage location is newly created but not yet assigned to the material or plant.
  For batch-managed materials, ensure batch data is also maintained properly.
