  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when the system tries to determine a supplier or manufacturer for a given material but fails to find any valid entries. This typically happens during warranty processing, service management, or procurement processes where the system needs to identify the source of the material for warranty claims, service orders, or purchase orders.
  Common reasons include:
  
  No source list entry exists for the material.
  No valid purchasing info record or vendor master data linked to the material.
  Missing or incomplete manufacturer data in the material master or related tables.
  The material is not assigned to any supplier or manufacturer in the system.
  The system configuration or master data setup for warranty or service processing is incomplete.

  To resolve the WTY152 error, perform the following checks and actions:
  
  
  Check Source List:

  Transaction: XK03 (Display Vendor)
  Confirm that the vendor is active and has the necessary purchasing data.
  
  
  
  Check Manufacturer Data in Material Master:
  
  Transaction: MM03 (Display Material)
  Navigate to the Purchasing or Basic Data views to check if manufacturer information is maintained.
  Maintain manufacturer data if missing.
  
  
  
  Check Warranty or Service Configuration:

  Check relevant customizing paths, e.g., under Logistics ? Customer Service ? Warranty Processing.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data Completeness:
  
  Ensure that the material master is complete and correctly maintained, especially fields related to procurement and manufacturer.
