  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR503 - No individual plants could be selected ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WR503 - No individual plants could be selected


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs in SAP when a user tries to execute a transaction or report that requires plant selection, but the system cannot find or determine any individual plants based on the selection criteria or user authorizations. Common causes include:

    • The user’s selection criteria (e.g., plant range, controlling area, company code) do not correspond to any existing plants.
    • The user does not have authorization to access any plants.
    • The plant master data might be incomplete or incorrectly maintained.
    • The configuration or customizing settings for plant selection in the relevant module (e.g., Production Planning, Materials Management, Controlling) are missing or incorrect.
    • The user might have selected a plant group or hierarchy that does not contain any individual plants.

    Solution:

    To resolve the WR503 error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Selection Criteria:

      • Verify the plant selection parameters entered in the transaction or report.
      • Ensure that the plants exist in the system and are active.
      • Try broadening the selection criteria to include more plants.
    2. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error to check for missing authorizations.
      • Ensure the user has the necessary authorization objects related to plant access, such as:
        • M_MATE_WRK (Plant authorization for Materials Management)
        • K_CCA (Cost Center Accounting)
        • S_TCODE (Transaction code authorization)
      • Adjust roles and profiles accordingly.
    3. Verify Plant Master Data:

      • Use transaction OX10 or SPRO to check plant definitions.
      • Confirm that plants are correctly assigned to company codes, controlling areas, or other relevant organizational units.
    4. Check Configuration:

      • Review customizing settings related to plant selection in the relevant module.
      • For example, in Controlling, check the assignment of plants to controlling areas.
      • In Materials Management, check plant parameters and plant groups.
    5. Check Plant Groups or Hierarchies:

      • If selecting plants via plant groups, verify that the group contains valid plants.
      • Use transaction OX18 to review plant groups.
    6. Test with Different User or Data:

      • Try running the transaction with a user known to have full plant access.
      • Try selecting different plants or no plants to see if the error persists.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: The error can appear in various transactions involving plant selection, such as:
      • MB51 (Material Document List)
      • MF50 (Planning Table)
      • COHV (Production Order Processing)
      • KSB1 (Cost Centers: Actual Line Items)
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Service Marketplace for notes related to WR503 for your specific module/version.
    • Authorization Objects: Ensure proper assignment of plant-related authorization objects.
    • User Roles: Review roles in PFCG for plant access.

    Summary:

    WR503 - No individual plants could be selected means the system could not find any plants matching the selection criteria or accessible by the user. The solution involves verifying selection parameters, user authorizations, plant master data, and configuration settings to ensure valid and authorized plant access.
