  Error Message
  WSTP003: EAN/UPC &1 does not exist
  
  &1 is a placeholder for the actual EAN/UPC code that triggered the error.
  
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the system tries to find or use a specific EAN (European Article Number) or UPC (Universal Product Code) in the SAP system, but the code does not exist in the relevant master data tables.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  The EAN/UPC code has not been maintained or created in the system.
  The EAN/UPC code is being referenced in a transaction (e.g., sales order, delivery, inventory management) but is missing in the material master or barcode master data.
  The EAN/UPC code is incorrectly entered or mistyped.
  The EAN/UPC code is not assigned to the material or plant in question.
  
  
  Where is the EAN/UPC stored in SAP?
  
  EAN/UPC codes are typically maintained in the Material Master under the Basic Data 1 or Additional Data views.
  They can also be maintained in the EAN/UPC master data table (e.g., table MARA, MARC, or EANLH depending on the SAP version and configuration).
  Sometimes, EANs are maintained in the Barcode master data or via specific transaction codes.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check if the EAN/UPC exists:
  
  Use transaction MM03 (Display Material) to check if the EAN/UPC is assigned to the material.
  Navigate to the Additional Data or Barcodes tab to verify the EAN/UPC.
  Alternatively, use table browser (SE16/SE16N) to check tables like MARA, EANLH, or MARC for the EAN/UPC.
  
  
  
  Create or maintain the missing EAN/UPC:
  
  If the EAN/UPC does not exist, maintain it using transaction MM02 (Change Material) or the relevant transaction for barcode maintenance.
  Assign the EAN/UPC to the correct material and plant.
  
  
  
  Verify the input:
  
  Ensure that the EAN/UPC code entered in the transaction is correct and matches the one maintained in the system.
  Check for any leading/trailing spaces or incorrect characters.
  
  
  
  Check configuration:
  
  If the system uses a custom barcode or EAN validation, verify the configuration in the logistics or sales modules.
  Ensure that the EAN/UPC is valid for the specific sales organization, distribution channel, or plant.
  
  
  
  Re-run the transaction:
  
  After maintaining the EAN/UPC, retry the transaction that caused the error.
