    Error Message

    WTY155: Status of parts to be returned from claimant & does not exist


    Cause

    This error occurs during warranty processing in SAP when the system tries to determine or update the status of parts that are supposed to be returned from the claimant (customer or service provider), but the status code it is looking for does not exist in the system.

    More specifically:

    • The system expects a certain return status for the parts being returned from the claimant.
    • The status code configured or referenced in the warranty claim or return process is missing or not maintained in the system.
    • This can happen if the status code was deleted, not configured, or there is a mismatch in the customizing settings related to returnable parts statuses.

    Where it Occurs

    • During warranty claim processing (transaction codes like IW70, IW71, or warranty claim processing in SD).
    • When processing return deliveries or returnable parts from the claimant.
    • In the warranty claim settlement or return handling steps.

    Solution

    1. Check Customizing for Returnable Parts Statuses:

      • Go to the customizing path:
        SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Shipping -> Returns -> Define Returnable Parts Statuses
      • Verify that the status code referenced in the warranty claim or return process exists.
      • If missing, create or maintain the required status codes.
    2. Check Warranty Claim Configuration:

      • Verify the status codes assigned to the warranty claim types and return processes.
      • Ensure that the status code for "parts to be returned from claimant" is correctly maintained.
    3. Check Master Data:

      • Check the material master or warranty master data to ensure that the returnable parts status is correctly assigned.
    4. Review the Warranty Claim Document:

      • Check the claim document to see which status code is being referenced.
      • Correct or update the status code if it is incorrect or missing.
    5. Transport and System Consistency:

      • If this error occurs after a transport or system upgrade, verify that all customizing related to returnable parts statuses has been transported correctly.

    Additional Information

    • The status codes for returnable parts control the flow and tracking of parts that are returned from the claimant.
    • Proper configuration ensures smooth processing of warranty claims and returns.
    • Missing or incorrect status codes can block the processing of warranty claims or returns.
    • This error is a configuration issue rather than a data entry error.

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Error WTY155 - Status of parts to be returned from claimant & does not exist
    Cause Missing or incorrect returnable parts status code in customizing or warranty claim data
    Solution Maintain the missing status code in customizing under returnable parts statuses
