    WRF_APC223 No assignment data found for purchasing list item &1 &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when the system cannot find the necessary assignment data for a specific purchasing list item during the processing of a purchasing list or related transaction in SAP. The placeholders &1 and &2 typically represent the purchasing list number and the item number, respectively.

    Common causes include:

    • The purchasing list item has not been properly assigned to a source of supply or vendor.
    • Missing or incomplete master data related to the purchasing list or source list.
    • The assignment data (such as source list entries or info records) required for the purchasing list item is not maintained or has been deleted.
    • The purchasing list item is being processed in a context where the system expects assignment data but none exists.

    When does it occur?

    • During the creation or processing of purchase requisitions or purchase orders that reference purchasing lists.
    • When the system tries to determine the source of supply for a purchasing list item but cannot find the relevant assignment.
    • In scenarios involving automatic sourcing or automatic purchase order creation from purchasing lists.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Check the Purchasing List Item:

      • Verify that the purchasing list item (&1 = purchasing list number, &2 = item number) exists and is correctly maintained.
      • Use transaction ME01 (Maintain Source List) or ME03 (Display Source List) to check if the source list entries exist for the material and vendor combination.
    2. Maintain Source List:

      • If the source list entry is missing, create or update it using ME01.
      • Ensure that the source list is valid for the relevant plant and purchasing organization.
    3. Check Info Records:

      • Verify that purchasing info records exist for the material and vendor.
      • Use transaction ME11 (Create Info Record) or ME12 (Change Info Record) to maintain or update info records.
    4. Check Purchasing List Master Data:

      • Ensure that the purchasing list itself is correctly maintained and active.
      • Use transaction ME04 (Maintain Purchasing List) to review and update the purchasing list.
    5. Check Validity Dates:

      • Ensure that the validity dates of the source list entries and info records cover the date of the purchasing document.
    6. Check Customizing / Configuration:

      • Verify if any custom logic or user exits are involved in sourcing or purchasing list processing that might cause the missing assignment.
    7. Reprocess the Transaction:

      • After maintaining the missing assignment data, retry the transaction that caused the error.

    Additional Information:

    • Purchasing List: A purchasing list is a list of materials and their assigned sources of supply (vendors) used to streamline procurement.
    • Source List: The source list is a master data object that specifies approved sources of supply for a material over a certain period.
