• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_WSUBST024 - Read material &1 receiving plant &2; no entry ?

  The SAP error message WRF_WSUBST024 indicates that there is no entry found for the specified material and receiving plant in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of materials management, particularly when dealing with material substitution or when trying to process a transaction that requires specific data related to a material in a particular plant.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Master Data: The most common cause is that the material master data for the specified material and plant combination is not maintained. This could mean that the material has not been created for that specific plant or that the relevant views (like purchasing, sales, etc.) are not set up.
  
  
  Incorrect Plant or Material: The error may also arise if the material number or plant code is incorrectly entered in the transaction.
  
  
  Data Synchronization Issues: If the system is integrated with other systems (like a legacy system or another SAP instance), there may be synchronization issues leading to missing data.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the data for the specified material and plant.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to transaction MM03 (Display Material) and check if the material exists for the specified plant.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it using transaction MM01 (Create Material).
  
  
  
  Verify Plant and Material Codes:
  
  Ensure that the material number and plant code are entered correctly in the transaction. Double-check for typos or incorrect entries.
  
  
  
  Maintain Necessary Views:
  
  If the material exists but lacks certain views (like purchasing or sales), you may need to maintain those views in the material master.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Synchronization:
  
  If your organization uses multiple systems, ensure that the data is synchronized correctly across systems.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the material and plant data. This can be checked with your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Consult with IT Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be beneficial to consult with your IT support team or SAP Basis team for further investigation.
