• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_CONS152 - Select a purchasing document item ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_CONS152 - Select a purchasing document item
  
  Cause:
  This error message typically occurs in SAP when a user is required to select a specific item from a purchasing document (such as a Purchase Order or Contract) but has not done so. The system expects the user to specify the item line within the purchasing document to proceed with the transaction or process.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  When creating or processing goods receipts, invoice verifications, or consignment processes where the system needs to know which item in the purchasing document is being referenced.
  When using certain SAP transactions or custom programs that require item-level selection but the user has only selected the header or no item at all.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Select the Purchasing Document Item:
  
  Go back to the screen where the purchasing document is referenced and explicitly select the item line(s) you want to process. This is usually done by clicking on the item or marking the checkbox next to the item line.
  
  
  Check the Input Screen:
  
  Ensure that the item field is not left blank. If you are entering data manually, make sure to enter the item number or select it from the list.
  
  
  Use the Correct Transaction or Screen:
  
  Some transactions require you to drill down into the purchasing document to select items. Make sure you are using the correct transaction and following the correct steps.
  
  
  Verify Custom Code or Enhancements:
  
  If this error appears in a custom program or enhancement, check the logic that handles item selection. The program might be expecting an item selection that is not being passed correctly.

  SAP Notes and Documentation:

  Summary:
  WRF_CONS152 means the system requires you to select a specific item line from a purchasing document before proceeding. To fix it, ensure you select the item explicitly in the transaction screen. If the problem occurs in custom code, verify the logic handling item selection.
