  Error Message
  WT208: Replenishment not defined for material &1
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in the Warehouse Management (WM) module when the system tries to perform a replenishment for a material, but the replenishment strategy or control parameters for that material are not defined or maintained in the system.
  In other words, the system does not know how to replenish the stock for the specified material because the necessary configuration or master data is missing.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During warehouse tasks related to replenishment (e.g., creating transfer orders for replenishment).
  When the system tries to determine the replenishment strategy for a material in a storage type or storage bin.
  When the material master or warehouse master data lacks replenishment control settings.
  
  
  Common Causes
  
  
  Missing Replenishment Indicator in Warehouse Product Master:
  
  The material’s warehouse product master data (transaction LX02, LX03, or MM02 with WM views) does not have replenishment defined.
  
  
  
  No Replenishment Strategy Maintained:
  
  The replenishment strategy (e.g., fixed bin, dynamic, or manual) is not assigned or maintained for the material in the warehouse management system.
  
  
  
  Storage Type or Storage Bin Settings:
  
  The storage type or storage bin does not have replenishment control parameters maintained.
  
  
  
  Missing or Incorrect Control Parameters:

  Solution / How to Fix
  
  
  Check and Maintain Warehouse Product Master Data:
  
  Use transaction LX02 or LX03 to display the warehouse product master.

  Go to SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Strategies ? Replenishment ? Define Replenishment Strategies.
