  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI105 - No message type exists for additional &1 (material group &2) ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WTADDI105 No message type exists for additional &1 (material group &2)


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Inventory Management (IM) when the system tries to determine the message type for an additional movement type or material group but cannot find a corresponding message type configuration.

    • &1 = Additional movement type or additional indicator.
    • &2 = Material group.

    In other words, the system is trying to find a message type for a specific combination of an additional movement type and material group, but no such message type has been maintained in the customizing.

    This typically happens during goods movements or warehouse movements where the system needs to generate a warehouse task or update inventory, and the message type controls how the system processes these movements.


    Where does this happen?

    • During goods receipt, goods issue, transfer postings in WM or IM.
    • When the system tries to create warehouse tasks or update stock and needs to determine the message type for the movement.
    • In the configuration of movement types and their link to warehouse message types.

    Cause:

    • Missing or incomplete configuration in SPRO under Warehouse Management settings.
    • Specifically, the system cannot find a message type for the combination of the additional movement type and material group.
    • This can happen if a new movement type or material group was introduced but the corresponding message type was not maintained.
    • Or if the customizing for message types is incomplete or inconsistent.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Check the configuration for message types:

      • Go to SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Goods Movement ? Define Message Types for Additional Movement Types (or similar path depending on SAP version).

      • Here, you maintain the message types for combinations of:

        • Movement type
        • Additional movement type
        • Material group
    2. Maintain the missing message type:

      • Identify the additional movement type (&1) and material group (&2) from the error message.
      • Maintain the appropriate message type for this combination.
      • The message type controls how the system processes the warehouse task or inventory update.
    3. Verify related customizing:

      • Check the movement type configuration in OMJJ (Movement Types).
      • Check the material master for the material group.
      • Ensure that the warehouse movement types and message types are consistent.
    4. Testing:

      • After maintaining the message type, test the goods movement or warehouse process again.
      • The error should no longer occur if the message type is correctly maintained.

    Additional Information:

    • Message types in WM control the creation of warehouse tasks and how the system processes goods movements.
    • The error is a configuration issue, not a system bug.
    • If unsure about which message type to assign, consult your WM or IM functional consultant or SAP documentation.
    • Sometimes, this error can also occur if custom movement types or material groups are introduced without corresponding WM configuration.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WTADDI105 No message type exists for additional &1 (material group &2)
    Cause Missing message type configuration for additional movement type & material group combo
    Solution Maintain the missing message type in SPRO under Warehouse Management ? Goods Movement
