SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WSTI_CALC - Physical Inventory Messages: Book Inv. Calc. at Count Time

• Message number: 077

• Message text: Non-unique result of Retail consignment proc.: mat. doc. &1/&2, IDoc &3

What causes this issue?

Item &V2& of material document &V1& is a non-unique item posted as a
result of Retail consignment processing. This was carried out during the
processing of inbound IDoc &V3&, which contains aggregated sales data.

System Response

The sales data that was posted with this item cannot be taken into
account during the calculation of the book inventory at count time.
Therefore, the book inventory of the related item in the physical
inventory document may be wrong.

How to fix this error?

The physical inventory during opening time supports Retail consignment
processing only if the latter results in the posting of unique items.
This can be ensured only in the following cases:
The material is always posted only out of your own unrestricted-use
stock.
The material is always posted out of the consignment stock of the same
vendor.
In Customizing, under <LS>Logistics - General</> -> <LS>Retail
Consignment Processing</>, change the settings so that non-unique
results cannot occur. We recommend that you repeat the physical
inventory for the related material after making these changes.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

  SAP Error Message:
  WSTI_CALC077 Non-unique result of Retail consignment proc.: mat. doc. &1/&2, IDoc &3
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of Retail consignment postings (usually in the context of Retail Invoice or Consignment processes) when the system tries to find a unique material document but finds multiple entries instead. Specifically, the system expects a single unique material document for a given consignment process, but the query or lookup returns more than one result.
  
  Material Document &1: The first part of the material document number.
  Material Document &2: The second part or item number.
  IDoc &3: The IDoc number involved in the process.
  
  The root cause is typically due to duplicate or ambiguous entries in the database tables related to consignment postings, or inconsistent data in the Retail consignment process.
  
  Common Scenarios Leading to This Error:
  
  Duplicate material documents exist for the same consignment process.
  Incomplete or inconsistent data in the Retail consignment tables (e.g., WSTI, MKPF, MSEG).
  IDoc processing tries to post or reference a material document that is not unique.
  Custom enhancements or user exits that incorrectly handle consignment postings.
  Parallel or repeated processing of the same IDoc leading to duplicate entries.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Check for Duplicate Material Documents:
  
  Use transaction MB51 or MB03 to check the material documents mentioned in the error.
  Verify if multiple documents exist for the same consignment process.
  
  
  
  Analyze IDoc Processing:
  
  Use WE02 or WE05 to check the IDoc &3.
  Verify if the IDoc has been processed multiple times or if there are errors in the segments related to consignment postings.
  
  
  
  Check Retail Consignment Tables:
  
  Look into tables like WSTI (Retail consignment info), MKPF (Material document header), and MSEG (Material document segments) for duplicate or inconsistent entries.
  Use SQL queries or SE16/SE16N to find duplicates.
  
  
  
  Correct Data or Delete Duplicates:
  
  If duplicates are found, investigate why they exist.
  If safe, delete or correct duplicate entries after proper backup and authorization.
  Sometimes, a manual reversal or cancellation of duplicate documents may be necessary.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the IDoc:
  
  After cleaning up duplicates, reprocess the IDoc.
  Use transaction BD87 to reprocess IDocs.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code:
  
  Review any user exits, BADIs, or enhancements related to Retail consignment postings.
