  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC264 No stores found for assortment &1 and distribution center &2
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Retail (specifically in Assortment Planning and Distribution processes) when the system tries to find stores assigned to a particular assortment and distribution center but does not find any.
  
  Assortment &1: The specific assortment ID or name.
  Distribution Center &2: The distribution center ID or name.
  
  The system expects that for a given assortment and distribution center, there should be at least one store assigned to receive or be part of that assortment. If no stores are assigned, the system cannot proceed with processes like distribution, replenishment, or assortment planning.
  
  Common Causes:
  
  No stores assigned to the assortment: The assortment master data does not have any stores linked.
  Stores not assigned to the distribution center: The stores that should be linked to the distribution center are missing or incorrectly maintained.
  Incorrect or incomplete master data: The assignment tables or customizing settings for assortments, stores, and distribution centers are incomplete or inconsistent.
  Data synchronization issues: Sometimes, master data changes are not properly replicated or updated in the relevant system/client.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Check Store Assignments to Assortment:
  
  Go to the Assortment master data maintenance transaction (e.g., /SAPAPO/ASSORT or relevant transaction in your SAP Retail system).
  Verify that stores are assigned to the assortment &1.
  If no stores are assigned, assign the appropriate stores.
  
  
  
  Check Store Assignments to Distribution Center:
  
  Verify that the stores assigned to the assortment are also linked to the distribution center &2.
  This can be checked in the store master data or distribution center assignment tables.
  
  
  
  Verify Master Data Consistency:
  
  Use reports or transactions to check the consistency of the assignment between assortments, stores, and distribution centers.
  For example, check tables like /SAPAPO/ASSORT_STORE or similar depending on your SAP Retail version.
  
  
  
  Data Replication / Synchronization:
  
  If you are working in a distributed environment (e.g., SAP ERP and SAP APO), ensure that master data replication jobs have run successfully.
  Re-run relevant CIF (Core Interface) replication if necessary.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes / Documentation:

  Sometimes patches or corrections are available.
