• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_WTAD037 - No IDoc creation for grouped PO documents or flagged purch. order ?

  The SAP error message WRF_WTAD037 indicates that there is no IDoc creation for grouped purchase order (PO) documents or flagged purchase orders. This error typically arises in the context of the SAP system's handling of purchase orders and the associated IDoc (Intermediate Document) processing, which is used for data interchange between SAP systems or between SAP and non-SAP systems.
  Causes:
  
  
  Grouping of Purchase Orders: The error may occur if the purchase orders are grouped in a way that does not allow for IDoc creation. This can happen if the system settings or configurations do not support the grouping of certain types of purchase orders.
  
  
  Flagged Purchase Orders: If a purchase order is flagged in a way that prevents it from being processed for IDoc creation, this error can occur. This could be due to specific settings in the purchase order or the associated material.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that are not set up correctly for IDoc processing, particularly for the specific type of purchase order being used.
  
  
  Status of Purchase Orders: If the purchase orders are in a status that does not allow for IDoc generation (e.g., if they are not fully processed or are in a blocked status), this error can occur.
  
  
  Missing Master Data: Required master data (like vendor or material master) may be missing or incomplete, which can prevent IDoc creation.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Purchase Order Status: Ensure that the purchase orders are in a status that allows for IDoc creation. They should be fully processed and not blocked.
  
  
  Review Grouping Settings: Check the settings related to the grouping of purchase orders in the configuration. Ensure that the system is set up to allow IDoc creation for the types of purchase orders you are working with.
  
  
  Examine Flags on Purchase Orders: Review any flags or indicators set on the purchase orders that may prevent IDoc creation. Adjust these flags if necessary.
  
  
  Configuration Review: Consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to review the IDoc configuration settings. Ensure that the relevant message types and process codes are correctly set up for the purchase order type in question.
  
  
  Master Data Verification: Verify that all necessary master data (vendor, material, etc.) is complete and correctly maintained in the system.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may address this specific error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common issues.
  
  
  Testing: After making any changes, perform tests to ensure that IDoc creation is functioning as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  IDoc Types: Familiarize yourself with the IDoc types relevant to purchase orders (e.g., ORDERS, ORDCHG) and their configurations.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like WE02 (to monitor IDocs) and WE19 (to test IDoc processing) for troubleshooting.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on IDoc processing and purchase order management.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or a consultant who specializes in SAP IDoc processing for further assistance.
