    WSTB013 - Program error posting requested quantities for allocation table &1


    Meaning / Cause:

    • This error occurs during the posting of requested quantities in the allocation table within SAP's Warehouse Management (WM) or Inventory Management (IM) modules.
    • The system encounters an inconsistency or unexpected condition when trying to post the requested quantities for a specific allocation table (the placeholder &1 is replaced by the actual table name or identifier).
    • Typically, this indicates a programming or data inconsistency error where the quantities to be posted do not match the expected values or the allocation table is in an inconsistent state.
    • It can happen due to:
      • Incorrect or incomplete data in the allocation table.
      • Custom code or user exits modifying the allocation quantities incorrectly.
      • Inconsistencies between the delivery/requested quantities and the stock available.
      • Bugs or issues in the standard SAP program logic handling the posting.

    Where it Occurs:

    • During warehouse movements, goods issue, goods receipt, or transfer postings in WM.

    1. Check the Allocation Table Data:

      • Identify the allocation table referenced in the error message.
      • Use transaction codes like LS24 (Display Transfer Order), LT23 (Display Transfer Order), or relevant WM transactions to check the status and data consistency.
      • Verify if the quantities in the allocation table match the actual stock and requested quantities.
    2. Analyze the Program or Custom Code:

      • If custom enhancements, user exits, or BADIs are implemented in the posting process, review them for errors or incorrect quantity handling.
      • Debug the program at the point where the error occurs to identify the exact cause.
    3. Check Stock and Delivery Data:

      • Ensure that the stock is available and not locked or blocked.
