• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI651 - EAN/UPC & not valid for material & ?

  The SAP error message:
  WTADDI651: EAN/UPC & not valid for material &
  typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Logistics Execution (LE) when you try to assign or use an EAN/UPC (European Article Number / Universal Product Code) that is not recognized or valid for the specified material.
  
  Cause
  
  The EAN/UPC code you are trying to use or assign is not maintained or linked to the material master record in SAP.
  The system checks the EAN/UPC against the material master data (usually in the Material Master > Basic Data 1 or Additional Data views or in the EAN/UPC tab).
  If the EAN/UPC code is missing or incorrect for the material, the system throws this error.
  This can happen during processes like:
  
  Goods receipt or goods issue in WM.
  Picking or packing processes where barcode scanning is involved.
  Creating or changing delivery documents or transfer orders.
  
  
  Sometimes, the error can also occur if the EAN/UPC is valid but assigned to a different material.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the EAN/UPC assignment in the Material Master:
  
  Go to transaction MM02 (Change Material).
  Enter the material number.
  Navigate to the Additional Data tab or the EAN/UPC tab (depending on SAP version).
  Verify if the EAN/UPC code in question is maintained for the material.
  If not, add the correct EAN/UPC code(s) for the material.
  
  
  
  Verify the EAN/UPC code:
  
  Ensure the barcode scanned or entered is correct and corresponds to the material.
  Check for any typos or incorrect barcode formats.
  
  
  
  Check for multiple EANs:
  
  If multiple EANs exist for a material, ensure the correct one is used in the process.
  
  
  
  Update or maintain EAN/UPC codes if missing:
  
  Use transaction MM02 or MM01 (Create Material) to maintain EAN/UPC codes.
  Alternatively, use transaction V-60 (EAN/UPC Maintenance) if available.
  
  
  
  Check integration settings:
  
  If the EAN/UPC codes are maintained in a separate system or via interfaces, ensure the data is synchronized properly.
  
  
  
  If the error occurs during scanning in WM:
  
  Check the warehouse number and storage type settings.
  Verify if the scanned barcode is correctly mapped to the material in the warehouse management system.
