Cause
This error occurs when you try to perform an operation that requires a delivery document linked to a specific purchase order, but no such delivery document exists in the system for that purchase order.
Common scenarios include:
In SAP MM (Materials Management) and SD (Sales and Distribution) modules, deliveries are documents that represent the physical movement of goods. For purchase orders, deliveries (inbound deliveries) are created to track the receipt of goods from vendors.
If you try to process a transaction that requires an existing delivery (e.g., goods receipt referencing an inbound delivery), and the delivery does not exist, SAP throws this error.
