  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS364 - You have not entered any organizational data (many documents) ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WS364 - You have not entered any organizational data (many documents)


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs when you are trying to process or post documents in SAP (often in HR or Payroll modules) but the system cannot find the required organizational data for the employee or object involved. Organizational data usually includes information such as personnel area, personnel subarea, employee group, employee subgroup, or other organizational assignments that are mandatory for the transaction.

    In many cases, this happens because:

    • The employee master record lacks valid organizational assignments for the relevant period.
    • The organizational data is missing or incomplete in infotypes (e.g., IT0001 - Organizational Assignment).
    • The system is trying to process multiple documents or records, and some of them do not have the necessary organizational data.
    • The validity dates of the organizational data do not cover the period of the document being processed.

    Solution:

    1. Check Employee Master Data:

      • Go to transaction PA20 or PA30.
      • Display the employee’s organizational assignment (Infotype 0001).
      • Verify that the organizational data (personnel area, personnel subarea, employee group, employee subgroup) is maintained and valid for the date of the document.
    2. Maintain Missing Organizational Data:

      • If missing, maintain the required organizational data in Infotype 0001.
      • Ensure the validity period covers the date of the document or payroll period.
    3. Check for Multiple Documents:

      • If processing many documents, identify which employee(s) or document(s) cause the error.
      • Correct the organizational data for those specific records.
    4. Review Customizing:

      • Sometimes, the error can be triggered by missing configuration in organizational management or payroll.
      • Check if the organizational units and assignments are properly configured.
    5. Re-run the Process:

      • After correcting the data, re-run the transaction or payroll run.

    Related Information:

    • Infotype 0001 (Organizational Assignment): This is the key infotype that holds organizational data for employees.
    • Personnel Area/Subarea: These are critical fields that determine payroll area, work schedules, and other processing rules.
    • Payroll Processing: Missing organizational data can cause payroll runs to fail or skip employees.
    • Transaction Codes: PA20 (Display HR Master Data), PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data), PU00 (Payroll Driver), etc.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to WS364 for any specific patches or updates.

    Summary:

    Error WS364 means the system cannot find necessary organizational data for one or more documents/employees. The fix is to ensure that all employees involved have valid and complete organizational assignments in their master data for the relevant periods.
