  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WT707 - Supply source determination only possible when redefining all master data ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WT707: "Supply source determination only possible when redefining all master data":


    Error Message:

    WT707 - Supply source determination only possible when redefining all master data


    Cause:

    This error occurs during the Warehouse Task (WT) creation or processing in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system tries to determine the supply source for a warehouse request or warehouse task, but the configuration or master data setup does not allow partial redefinition of master data.

    More specifically:

    • The system is configured to redefine all master data (such as product master, storage bin master, source determination rules, etc.) during supply source determination.
    • However, the current process or customization attempts to perform supply source determination without redefining all master data.
    • This inconsistency leads to the error because the supply source determination logic requires a full redefinition of master data to work correctly.

    When does it typically occur?

    • During supply source determination in warehouse processes like stock removal, internal movements, or production supply.
    • When customizing or implementing supply source determination in EWM, especially if you have set the system to require full master data redefinition.
    • When there is a mismatch between the supply source determination settings and the actual master data available or the way the system is called.

    Solution:

    1. Check Supply Source Determination Settings:

      • Go to the customizing path in SAP EWM:
        SPRO -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Cross-Process Settings -> Supply Chain Execution -> Supply Source Determination
      • Verify the settings related to master data redefinition.
      • Ensure that the system is configured consistently to either:
        • Redefine all master data during supply source determination, or
        • Allow partial redefinition if that is supported.
    2. Adjust Master Data Redefinition Flag:

      • If the system requires full master data redefinition, make sure that the process or program triggering supply source determination complies with this.
      • If partial redefinition is needed, adjust the configuration or program logic accordingly.
    3. Review Custom Code or Enhancements:

      • If you have custom developments or user exits/enhancements related to supply source determination, check if they are handling master data redefinition properly.
      • Ensure that the custom code does not bypass or conflict with the standard supply source determination logic.
    4. Check Master Data Completeness:

      • Verify that all relevant master data (product master, storage bins, source determination rules, etc.) are correctly maintained and consistent.
      • Missing or inconsistent master data can cause the system to fail in supply source determination.
    5. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Check for any SAP Notes related to WT707 for your specific SAP EWM version.
      • Sometimes, patches or corrections are provided by SAP to handle specific scenarios.

    Related Information:

    • Supply Source Determination in SAP EWM:

      • It is a process to find the appropriate source location or stock for fulfilling warehouse requests.
      • It depends heavily on master data like product master, storage bin master, stock information, and source determination rules.
    • Master Data Redefinition:

      • Refers to the process of refreshing or reloading master data during supply source determination.
      • Full redefinition means all relevant master data is reloaded to ensure accurate source determination.
      • Partial redefinition might only reload some data, which can lead to inconsistencies if not supported.
    • Transaction / Program Involved:

      • The error might appear during warehouse task creation (e.g., via transaction /SCWM/TO_CONF or during background processing).
      • It can also appear in custom programs or interfaces that trigger supply source determination.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Message WT707 - Supply source determination only possible when redefining all master data
