• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE234 - Material is either not created or not indexed ?

  SAP Error Message:
  WSD_MESSAGE234 Material is either not created or not indexed
  
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when a material that is being searched for or referenced in a Web Service or Fiori app does not exist in the system or has not been properly indexed in the search engine (such as SAP Enterprise Search or SAP HANA Full-Text Search). The system tries to retrieve material data but fails because:
  
  The material master record has not been created in the system.
  The material exists but has not been indexed yet, so the search engine cannot find it.
  The indexing process failed or is outdated.
  The material number used in the request is incorrect or does not match any existing material.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Verify Material Existence:
  
  Check if the material exists in the system using transaction MM03 (Display Material).
  If the material does not exist, create it using MM01 or the appropriate process.
  
  
  
  Check Indexing Status:
  
  If the material exists, ensure it is indexed properly.
