  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI_APPL013 - Additionals must be read for promotion & ?

    The SAP error message WTADDI_APPL013: Additionals must be read for promotion & typically occurs in the context of SAP Retail Promotion Management or Trade Promotion Management. It indicates that the system expects additional data (often called "additionals") related to a promotion to be read or processed, but this has not happened yet.


    Cause

    • The error arises because the system requires additional information (additionals) linked to a promotion to be read before proceeding with the current operation.
    • This usually happens when the promotion data is incomplete or the additional conditions/details related to the promotion have not been fetched or loaded.
    • It can occur during promotion processing, pricing, or condition determination steps where the system expects these additionals to be available.
    • Sometimes, this is due to missing or incomplete configuration in the promotion setup or missing master data related to the promotion additionals.
    • It can also happen if the promotion is being processed in a system where the additionals have not been properly transferred or activated.

    Solution

    1. Check Promotion Setup:

      • Verify that the promotion is correctly configured and all required additional data (additionals) are maintained.
      • Ensure that the promotion includes all necessary additional conditions or attributes.
    2. Read/Load Additionals:

      • Make sure that the additionals are read or loaded before the promotion processing step that triggers the error.
      • This might involve running a specific report or program to load additionals or ensuring that the relevant BAdIs or user exits that read additionals are correctly implemented.
    3. Check Master Data:

      • Confirm that all master data related to the promotion additionals is complete and consistent.
      • For example, check condition records, material master, customer master, and any other relevant data.
    4. Review Custom Code / Enhancements:

      • If there are custom developments or enhancements related to promotion processing, verify that they correctly handle the reading of additionals.
      • Debug the process to see where the additionals are expected but not read.
    5. System Consistency:

      • If the promotion data was transported from another system, ensure that all related additionals and configuration objects were transported correctly.
      • Run consistency checks or re-import missing data if necessary.
    6. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to message WTADDI_APPL013 for any known issues or patches.
      • If the problem persists, consider raising a support ticket with SAP, providing detailed logs and system information.
