• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI_APPL010 - Additionals for material & are read from the buffer ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WTADDI_APPL010 Additionals for material & are read from the buffer
  
  Explanation / Cause
  This message is an informational message rather than an error. It appears in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when additional data (referred to as "additionals") for a material is being accessed.
  
  The message indicates that the system has retrieved additional data related to a material from the buffer (cache) instead of reading it directly from the database.
  This buffering mechanism is used to improve performance by avoiding repeated database reads for the same material data during warehouse processes.
  The & symbol in the message is a placeholder for the material number.
  
  In short:
  
  The system is informing you that the additional data for the specified material was found in the buffer and used, which is normal behavior.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During warehouse tasks such as picking, putaway, or stock transfers.
  When the system needs to access additional material data (e.g., batch info, handling unit info, or custom additionals).
  When the buffer is active and contains the required data.
  
  
  Is this an error?
  
  No, this is not an error or warning.  
  It is an informational message (usually message class WTADDI, message number 010).
  It helps in debugging or tracing system behavior related to data buffering.
  
  
  Solution / Action
  
  No action is required if this message appears in logs or traces.
  If you see this message frequently and suspect performance issues, you can check:
  
  Buffer settings in your system (e.g., buffering of material master data).
  Whether the buffer is being cleared too often or not refreshed properly.
  
  
  If you want to suppress this informational message in user dialogs, you can adjust message handling or user settings, but generally, it is harmless.

  SAP buffers certain master data to improve performance. Material master data buffering is common in logistics modules.
  
  
  Message Class WTADDI:
  
  This message class relates to additional data handling in Warehouse Management.
  
  
  Transaction / Tools:  
  
  Use transaction SM12 to check for locked buffers or entries.  
  Use transaction SM04 or AL08 to monitor user sessions and buffer usage.  
  Use transaction ST05 (SQL trace) or ST12 (performance trace) to analyze database access and buffering.
  
  
  
  Customizing:
  
  Buffer settings can be found in IMG under Logistics Execution ? Warehouse Management ? Interfaces ? Buffering.
