WRTL003 - Details

• SAP Error Message:
  WRTL003: This transaction is only intended for Retail Ledger
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a user tries to execute a transaction or function that is specifically designed for the Retail Ledger (part of SAP for Retail) in a system or client that does not have the Retail Ledger activated or configured. Essentially, the transaction is restricted to Retail Ledger environments, and the system detects that the current environment is not set up accordingly.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The Retail Ledger is a specialized ledger used in SAP Retail to handle retail-specific financial postings.
  Transactions flagged with this message are meant to be used only when the Retail Ledger is active.
  If Retail Ledger is not active or the system is a standard FI system without Retail components, the transaction cannot proceed.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check System Configuration:
  
  Verify if the Retail Ledger is activated in your system.
  Retail Ledger activation is typically done via IMG settings under Financial Accounting (New) > Retail Ledger
