  SAP Error Message:
  
  WX465 - Please delete goods recipient & for receiving point(s)
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs during the Goods Receipt (GR) process in SAP when there is a mismatch or inconsistency related to the Goods Recipient field in the delivery or inbound delivery document. Specifically, the system detects that a goods recipient has been assigned to one or more receiving points, but this assignment is not valid or conflicts with the current process.
  Common scenarios causing this error include:
  
  The goods recipient is assigned to receiving points that are no longer valid or have been changed.
  The delivery or inbound delivery document has receiving points assigned with a goods recipient, but the system expects these to be deleted or cleared before proceeding.
  Configuration or master data inconsistencies where the goods recipient assignment does not align with the receiving points setup.
  Attempting to post a goods receipt when the goods recipient data is inconsistent or incomplete.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the WX465 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Receiving Points and Goods Recipient Assignments:
  
  Go to the inbound delivery or delivery document.
  Review the receiving points assigned.
  Check if a goods recipient is assigned to these receiving points.
  
  
  
  Delete or Correct Goods Recipient Assignments:
  
  If the goods recipient is assigned incorrectly or is no longer valid, delete the goods recipient entry for the receiving points.
  This can be done in the delivery document or via the relevant transaction (e.g., VL32N for inbound delivery change).
  
  
  
  Verify Master Data and Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the receiving points and goods recipient master data are correctly maintained.
  Check if any recent changes in configuration or master data might have caused inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Goods Receipt:
  
  After correcting the goods recipient assignments, try posting the goods receipt again.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes or Support:
