• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI_IDOC016 - No purchasing info record exists for material & ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WTADDI_IDOC016 No purchasing info record exists for material &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of an IDoc (typically related to purchasing documents like Purchase Orders or Scheduling Agreements) when the system tries to find a Purchasing Info Record for a given material and vendor combination but cannot find one.
  
  The Purchasing Info Record (Info Record) contains data about the relationship between a vendor and a material, such as prices, conditions, delivery times, etc.
  If the Info Record does not exist for the material/vendor combination, the system cannot proceed with certain purchasing processes, especially when the IDoc expects this data to be present.
  
  
  When does this happen?
  
  During automatic creation or update of purchasing documents via IDocs (e.g., ORDERS05, DELVRY03).
  When the system tries to validate or copy purchasing data from the Info Record.
  In scenarios where the Info Record is mandatory for the process but missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create the Purchasing Info Record:
  
  Use transaction ME11 to create a Purchasing Info Record for the material and vendor combination.
  Ensure that the Info Record is valid for the plant and purchasing organization involved.
  Maintain all necessary data such as conditions, delivery times, and prices if required.
  
  
  
  Check Vendor and Material Master Data:
  
  Verify that the vendor is valid and active.
  Check that the material master data is correct and assigned to the correct plant.
  
  
  
  Check IDoc Data:
  
  Verify the IDoc segments to ensure the correct material and vendor numbers are being passed.
  Confirm that the purchasing organization and plant data in the IDoc match the Info Record data.
  
  
  
  Adjust Customizing (if applicable):
  
  In some cases, the process might be customized to require an Info Record.
  If the Info Record is not mandatory for your business process, check if the validation can be bypassed or adjusted.
  
  
  
  Debugging / Logs:
  
  Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to analyze the IDoc.
  Check the status records and error details.
  Debug the function module or BAdI that processes the IDoc to see where the Info Record check fails.
