  WSTI_MLT_INV_DOC011 No entry found for physical inventory document &1 fiscal year &2
  typically occurs during physical inventory processing in SAP, especially when dealing with inventory documents and their related postings.
  
  Meaning / Cause
  
  The system is trying to access or reference a physical inventory document (document number &1) for a specific fiscal year (&2), but it cannot find any entry for that document in the database.
  This usually means that the physical inventory document number you are trying to use or reference does not exist or has not been created properly.
  Possible causes include:
  
  The physical inventory document was never created or saved.
  The document number or fiscal year entered is incorrect or mistyped.
  The document was deleted or archived.
  There is a mismatch between the fiscal year and the document number.
  The document exists but in a different fiscal year or company code.
  The system is trying to post or reference a document that was not generated due to an earlier error.
  
  
  
  
  When does this error occur?

  When trying to display or process inventory documents.

  Solution / How to fix
  
  
  Verify Document Number and Fiscal Year:
  
  Double-check the physical inventory document number and fiscal year you are entering.
  Make sure they correspond to an existing document in the system.
  
  
  
  Check Document Existence:
  
  Use transaction MI03 (Display Physical Inventory Document) to check if the document exists.
  If the document does not exist, you need to create a new physical inventory document (MI01).
  
  
  
  Check Document Status:
  
  If the document exists, verify its status (open, counted, posted).
  If the document is incomplete or blocked, resolve those issues first.
  
  
  
  Fiscal Year and Company Code Consistency:
  
  Ensure that the fiscal year and company code are consistent with the document.
  Sometimes the document is created in a different fiscal year or company code.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Correct Document:
  
  If the document was deleted or corrupted, recreate the physical inventory document.
  If the document was never created, create it properly before posting.
  
  
  
  Check for Archiving or Deletion:
  
  If the document was archived or deleted, you may need to restore it or create a new document.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing and Program Logic:
  
  If this error occurs during a custom program or report, check the logic that fetches the document.
  Ensure that the program is passing the correct document number and fiscal year.
