• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_CONS013 - After calling stock determination, a quantity of &1 &2 remains open ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WRF_CONS013:
  
  SAP Error Message: WRF_CONS013
  Text: After calling stock determination, a quantity of &1 &2 remains open.
  
  Cause:
  This message occurs during the stock determination process in SAP (typically in the context of production order confirmations, goods movements, or reservation processing). It indicates that after the system has tried to allocate stock to fulfill a requirement, there is still a remaining quantity that could not be assigned to any stock.
  In other words, the system tried to determine stock to cover a demand (e.g., for a production order component or a reservation), but the available stock was insufficient or not suitable, so a certain quantity remains "open" (unfulfilled).
  Common causes include:
  
  Insufficient stock available in the relevant storage locations or batches.
  Stock is blocked, restricted, or otherwise not available for allocation.
  Stock determination rules or strategies do not cover the required stock.
  Incorrect or incomplete configuration of stock determination (e.g., missing or incorrect movement types, storage location determination, or stock selection criteria).
  The stock is available but in a different plant or storage location not considered by the stock determination logic.
  Batch or special stock restrictions prevent allocation.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the issue, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Stock Availability:
  
  Verify the actual stock situation for the material in the relevant plant/storage location using transaction MMBE or MB52.
  Check if the stock is blocked or restricted (e.g., quality inspection stock, blocked stock).
  
  
  
  Review Stock Determination Configuration:
  
  Check the stock determination strategy/customizing in SPRO under:
  
  Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Stock Determination
  Or Production ? Shop Floor Control ? Confirmation ? Stock Determination
  
  
  Ensure that the stock determination rules are correctly set up for the material, movement type, and plant.
  
  
  
  Check Movement Types and Stock Types:
  
  Confirm that the movement type used allows picking from the stock types available.
  Check if the stock types (unrestricted, quality inspection, blocked, special stock) are correctly considered.
  
  
  
  Adjust Stock or Requirements:
  
  If stock is insufficient, procure or produce more stock.
  Adjust the order quantity or split the order to match available stock.
  
  
  
  Check Batch and Special Stock Settings:
  
  If batch management is active, ensure batches are available and correctly assigned.
  For special stock (e.g., consignment, project stock), verify availability and authorization.
  
  
  
  Debug or Analyze the Stock Determination Process:
  
  Use transaction MB51 or COHV to analyze stock movements.
  If necessary, debug the stock determination function modules to understand why stock is not allocated.
