  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_AT126 - Distribution center &4 is not valid for action &3 (allocation table &2) ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_AT126: Distribution center &4 is not valid for action &3 (allocation table &2)


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs during the execution of an allocation or replenishment process in SAP (typically in the Warehouse Management or Inventory Allocation modules). The system is trying to perform an action (such as allocation, transfer, or replenishment) using a specific allocation table (&2), but the distribution center (&4) involved is not valid or not assigned for the specified action (&3).

    In other words, the distribution center you are trying to use is either not maintained or not allowed for the particular allocation action defined in the allocation table.


    Common Causes:

    • The distribution center is not assigned or configured in the allocation table.
    • The allocation table does not include the distribution center for the specified action.
    • Master data inconsistency or missing configuration in the allocation/replenishment setup.
    • Incorrect or incomplete customizing in the allocation table or distribution center assignment.
    • The action (&3) might be a specific process step (e.g., "replenishment", "allocation", "transfer") that the distribution center is not authorized or configured to perform.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check Allocation Table Configuration:

      • Go to the customizing transaction for allocation tables (e.g., SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Strategies ? Define Allocation Tables).
      • Verify that the allocation table (&2) includes the distribution center (&4) for the action (&3).
      • If missing, add the distribution center to the allocation table for the required action.
    2. Verify Distribution Center Master Data:

      • Check the master data for the distribution center to ensure it is active and correctly maintained.
      • Confirm that the distribution center is assigned to the relevant plants, storage locations, or warehouse numbers as required.
    3. Check Action Definition:

      • Understand what action (&3) refers to (e.g., replenishment, allocation).
      • Verify that the distribution center is allowed to perform this action in the system configuration.
    4. Review Customizing for Allocation Process:

      • Check the settings in the allocation or replenishment customizing to ensure the distribution center is included in the process flow.
    5. Testing:

      • After making corrections, test the allocation or replenishment process again to confirm the error is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
