  SAP Error Message:
  WSTI_MON007
  
  Text: No PDC transactions have occurred since &1 without a document reference.
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This message is generated by the PDC (Production Data Collection) monitoring tool in SAP. It indicates that since the specified date (&1), no PDC transactions have been recorded without a document reference.
  In other words, the system is checking for PDC transactions that do not have an associated document reference (such as a production order, process order, or other relevant document). The message states that no such transactions have occurred since the given date.
  This message is informational and typically appears during monitoring or consistency checks of PDC data.
  
  Why does this happen?
  
  Normal scenario: If your PDC system is working correctly and all transactions are properly linked to documents, then it is expected that no PDC transactions without document references exist.
  Potential issue: If you expect to see PDC transactions without document references (e.g., manual entries, corrections, or unlinked data), but none are found, it might indicate that such transactions are missing or not being recorded.
  Data consistency check: The message can be part of a consistency check or monitoring report that looks for orphaned PDC transactions (transactions without document references), which could indicate data integrity issues.
  
  
  Solution / Actions:
  
  
  Verify the date parameter (&1):
  
  Check the date from which the system is searching for PDC transactions without document references. Ensure it is the correct date range for your monitoring.
  
  
  Check PDC transaction data:  
  
  Use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/RRP3 or PDC-specific reports to review PDC transactions.
  Verify if there are any transactions without document references in the system.
  
  
  
  Confirm system behavior:  
  
  If your process requires all PDC transactions to be linked to documents, then this message is a positive confirmation that no orphaned transactions exist.
  If you expect some unlinked transactions, investigate why they are missing.
  
  
  
  Review PDC configuration and data collection:  
  
  Ensure that the PDC system is correctly configured to capture and link transactions to documents.
  Check for any errors in data collection or transmission from shop floor devices.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes / Support:  
  
  If you suspect a system issue or bug, check SAP Notes related to PDC monitoring and the message WSTI_MON007.
