  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE056 - Cannot display created material (&1) ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WSD_MESSAGE056 Cannot display created material (&1)


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs when the system is unable to display the material master record that was just created. The main reasons include:

    • Authorization issues: The user does not have the necessary authorization to display the material.
    • Material master data inconsistency: The material record might be incomplete or corrupted.
    • Material type or industry sector mismatch: The material type or industry sector assigned during creation is not valid or not supported in the current client.
    • Data not committed: The material creation transaction did not complete successfully, so the material does not exist in the database.
    • Display transaction mismatch: The system tries to display the material using a transaction or screen that is not compatible with the material type.

    Solution:

    1. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify that the user has the required authorization objects (e.g., M_MATE_MAR for material master display).
      • Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error to check missing authorizations.
    2. Verify Material Existence:

      • Use transaction MM03 to manually try to display the material.
      • If the material does not exist, the creation process failed; check the creation logs or error messages.
    3. Check Material Type and Industry Sector:

      • Confirm that the material type and industry sector are valid and consistent.
      • Use transaction OMS2 to check material types and their settings.
    4. Review Material Creation Process:

      • Ensure that the material creation transaction completed successfully.
      • Check for any errors during creation that might have prevented the material from being saved.
    5. Check Customizing and User Exits:

      • If custom code or user exits are involved in material creation or display, verify that they are not causing the issue.
    6. Database Consistency:

      • Run consistency checks on material master data if corruption is suspected (consult BASIS or SAP support).

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • MM01 – Create Material
      • MM03 – Display Material
      • SU53 – Authorization Check
      • OMS2 – Material Types Customizing
    • SAP Notes:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WSD_MESSAGE056 or material display issues.
    • Authorization Objects:

      • M_MATE_MAR – Material Master: Display Authorization
      • M_MATE_WRK – Material Master: Plant Data

    If the problem persists after these checks, consider raising a support ticket with SAP, providing detailed logs and steps to reproduce the issue.
