  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSTI_CALC036 - Incompletely Process Inbound IDoc Found with Sales Data ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WSTI_CALC036: Incompletely Process Inbound IDoc Found with Sales Data:


    Error Message:

    WSTI_CALC036 - Incompletely Process Inbound IDoc Found with Sales Data


    Cause:

    This error occurs when an inbound IDoc (Intermediate Document) related to sales data (such as sales orders, deliveries, billing documents) has been received but not completely processed in the SAP system. The IDoc processing is incomplete or stuck, which means the system has partial data but the full transaction has not been finalized.

    Common causes include:

    • The IDoc processing was interrupted due to system errors, user cancellations, or communication issues.
    • The IDoc is in a status indicating it is not fully processed (e.g., status 64 - IDoc ready for dispatch, or status 51 - error during processing).
    • Missing or inconsistent master data required for completing the sales document creation.
    • Configuration or mapping errors in the IDoc processing function modules.
    • Locking or update conflicts during the inbound processing.

    Solution:

    1. Check IDoc Status:

      • Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to display the IDoc.
      • Verify the status of the IDoc. Status 53 means successfully processed; statuses like 51 or 64 indicate errors or incomplete processing.
    2. Analyze the Error:

      • Look at the status records and error messages attached to the IDoc.
      • Identify the exact point of failure or missing data.
    3. Reprocess the IDoc:

      • If the error is transient or due to system issues, try reprocessing the IDoc using transaction BD87.
      • Correct any data issues before reprocessing.
    4. Check Master Data and Configuration:

      • Ensure all required master data (customer, material, pricing, etc.) exists and is consistent.
      • Verify the IDoc processing function modules and partner profiles are correctly configured.
    5. Debug or Trace:

      • If the problem persists, debug the inbound processing function module (e.g., IDOC_INPUT_* function modules) to find where the processing stops.
      • Check for any user-exits or BAdIs that might be causing the issue.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WSTI_CALC036 or the specific IDoc type you are processing.
