  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE223 - All materials for this selection are already created ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WSD_MESSAGE223: All materials for this selection are already created


    Cause:

    This message typically occurs in SAP when you attempt to create materials (e.g., via a mass creation or a specific transaction) but the system finds that all the materials you selected or specified already exist in the system. In other words, there are no new materials to create because the selection criteria match only materials that have already been created.

    This can happen in scenarios such as:

    • Using mass material creation tools (e.g., transaction MM01 mass creation, or custom programs).
    • Running a process that tries to generate materials based on a selection or template, but all those materials are already present.
    • Trying to create materials from a list or data source where all entries have been previously created.

    Solution:

    • Check the selection criteria: Review the input or selection parameters you used to create materials. Make sure you are not selecting materials that already exist.
    • Verify material master data: Use transaction MM03 or similar to check if the materials you want to create already exist.
    • Adjust the selection: Modify your selection to include only materials that do not yet exist.
    • Use a report or program to identify missing materials: If you have a list of materials, run a report or custom program to find which materials are missing before attempting creation.
    • If mass creation is automated: Check the logic or filters in the program to ensure it excludes already existing materials.
    • If you want to update existing materials: Instead of creating, use the appropriate transaction or program to update material master data.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • MM01: Create Material
      • MM02: Change Material
      • MM03: Display Material
      • Custom mass creation programs or LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench) for mass data upload.
    • Notes and Documentation:

      • Check SAP Notes related to mass material creation or the specific tool you are using.
      • Review user guides or documentation for the mass creation tool or program to understand how it handles existing materials.
    • Common Scenarios:

      • When integrating with external systems or data sources, ensure synchronization checks to avoid duplicate creation attempts.
      • When running batch jobs or background programs for material creation, implement checks to skip existing materials.

    If you provide the exact transaction or program you are using when this message appears, I can give more tailored advice.
