  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_DYNAMIC_SELECT014 - No entry found for the specified material hierarchy data ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_DYNAMIC_SELECT014 No entry found for the specified material hierarchy data


    Cause:

    This error occurs when the system tries to access or retrieve data related to a material hierarchy, but no corresponding entry exists in the database for the specified material hierarchy node or level. Essentially, the system expects to find material hierarchy data for a given material or hierarchy node, but it cannot find any matching records.

    Common scenarios causing this error include:

    • The material hierarchy has not been maintained or created for the material in question.
    • The material hierarchy data is incomplete or missing in the relevant tables.
    • Incorrect or inconsistent material hierarchy node or level specified in the selection or processing.
    • Data inconsistencies due to incomplete master data setup or data migration issues.

    Explanation:

    Material hierarchies in SAP are used to classify materials in a structured way, often for reporting, pricing, or sales purposes. The hierarchy is maintained in transaction MMH1/MMH2 or via IMG settings, and the data is stored in tables such as T179, T179T, and related tables.

    When a program or report tries to dynamically select or filter data based on material hierarchy, it looks up these tables. If the expected entry is missing, the system throws this error.


    Solution:

    To resolve this error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Material Hierarchy Setup:

      • Go to transaction MMH1 (Create Material Hierarchy) or MMH2 (Change Material Hierarchy).
      • Verify that the material hierarchy nodes and levels are properly defined.
      • Ensure that the material in question is assigned to the correct hierarchy node.
    2. Verify Material Master Data:

      • Check the material master (transaction MM03) to confirm that the material hierarchy field is populated correctly.
      • The material hierarchy field is usually found in the Sales: Sales Org. 2 view or other relevant views depending on configuration.
    3. Check Table Entries:

      • Use SE16/SE16N to check tables like T179 (Material Hierarchy) and T179T (Material Hierarchy Texts).
      • Confirm that the hierarchy node exists and is active.
    4. Data Consistency:

      • If the data was migrated or recently changed, run consistency checks or re-import the hierarchy data.
      • Use standard SAP reports or tools to validate material hierarchy data.
    5. Review Program or Report Selection:

      • If this error occurs during a custom report or program execution, check the selection criteria.
      • Ensure that the material hierarchy node or level specified exists and is valid.
    6. Transport and System Copies:

      • If the error appears after a system copy or transport, verify that the material hierarchy data was included and correctly imported.

    Additional Information:

    • Material Hierarchy is often used in pricing procedures, sales reporting, and classification.
    • The hierarchy can have up to 10 levels (configurable).
    • The error message is part of the dynamic selection framework in SAP, which dynamically builds selection screens or filters based on hierarchy data.
    • If you are unsure about the hierarchy setup, consult your SAP MM or SD functional consultant.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WRF_DYNAMIC_SELECT014 No entry found for the specified material hierarchy data
    Cause Missing or incorrect material hierarchy data for the specified node or material
    Solution Verify and maintain material hierarchy in MMH1/MMH2, check material master, validate data
    Related Tables T179 (Material Hierarchy), T179T (Texts)
    Transactions MMH1, MMH2, MM03, SE16N

    If you need further assistance, please provide details such as the transaction or program where the error occurs, and the material or hierarchy node involved.
