• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_AT132 - Processing method &1 is not allowed for DC &2 (material &3) ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_AT132 Processing method &1 is not allowed for DC &2 (material &3)
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of a material document or related transaction when the system detects that the specified processing method (&1) is not permitted for the given Document Category (DC) (&2) and material (&3).
  
  Processing method refers to the way the system is supposed to handle or process the document or material movement.
  Document Category (DC) is a classification of the document type or movement type.
  The system has predefined rules or configuration that restrict certain processing methods for specific document categories and materials.
  This error typically arises in scenarios involving warehouse management (WM), inventory management (IM), or logistics execution (LE) where certain processing methods are restricted for specific document types or materials.
  
  
  Common Causes:
  
  Incorrect or incompatible processing method assigned for the document category or movement type.
  Configuration missing or incorrect in the customizing settings for warehouse management or inventory management.
  Material master data or movement type settings do not allow the processing method being used.
  Attempting to use a processing method that is not supported for the material type or document category.
  Custom developments or user exits might be enforcing additional restrictions.
  
  
  Where it typically occurs:
  
  During goods movements (goods receipt, goods issue, transfer postings).
  In warehouse management processes like transfer orders, transfer postings.
  When processing material documents or transfer orders.
  In RF (Radio Frequency) transactions or WM processing.
  
  
  Solution / How to fix:
  
  
  Check the processing method being used:
  
  Identify the processing method (&1) from the error message.
  Verify if this processing method is valid for the document category (&2) and material (&3).
  
  
  
  Review Customizing settings:
  
  Go to SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Interfaces ? Inventory Management ? Define Processing Methods.
  Check the allowed processing methods for the relevant document category or movement type.
  Adjust the configuration to allow the processing method if appropriate.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Verify if the material master settings (especially WM views) allow the processing method.
  Check if the material is restricted for certain processing methods.
  
  
  
  Check Movement Type and Document Category:
  
  Review the movement type configuration in SPRO ? Materials Management ? Inventory Management ? Movement Types.
  Confirm the document category assigned to the movement type.
  Ensure the processing method is allowed for this combination.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code or User Exits:
  
  If standard configuration looks correct, check if any user exits, BADIs, or custom code is restricting the processing method.
  Debug or review the code to understand the restriction.
