- Screen number not specified for material type &1 in client &2 ?Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
SAP Error Message:
WSD_MESSAGE084: Screen number not specified for material type &1 in client &2
Cause:
This error occurs when the system tries to determine the screen number for a particular material type in a specific client, but no screen number has been maintained or specified in the configuration. Essentially, the system expects a screen number assignment for the material type but finds none.
In SAP, material types are linked to specific screen sequences (screen numbers) that define how material master data is displayed and maintained. If this linkage is missing or incomplete, the system cannot proceed and throws this error.
Where it happens:
Check and Maintain Screen Number Assignment:
Go to transaction OMS2 (or SPRO path:
Logistics - General > Material Master > Basic Settings > Material Types > Define Screen Sequence for Material Type
).
In OMS2, select the relevant Material Type and Client.
Ensure that the Screen Number is specified for the material type in the client where the error occurs.
If the screen number is missing:
Assign the correct screen number(s) for the material type.
Save the changes.
Transport the changes if working in a development system and move to quality/production.
Check for custom developments or industry solutions:
Sometimes, custom screen sequences or industry-specific screen assignments are required.
Verify if any custom screen sequences are missing or incorrectly assigned.
Material Type: Defines the characteristics and behavior of materials in SAP (e.g., ROH for raw materials, FERT for finished products).
Screen Number: Refers to the screen sequence or screen layout used during material master maintenance.
This error is often related to configuration issues in the IMG (Implementation Guide).
If the problem persists after maintaining OMS2, check for user exits or BAdIs that might override screen sequences.
