  SAP Error Message:
  WY105 No data exists for reference supplier selected for characteristic &
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when the system tries to retrieve data for a reference supplier linked to a particular characteristic (often in the context of classification, material master, or vendor master data), but no data is found for the selected reference supplier and characteristic combination.
  In other words, the system expects to find some data (e.g., classification values, characteristic values, or vendor-specific data) for the reference supplier you have selected, but the data does not exist in the system.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Using a reference supplier in a purchasing info record or source list where the characteristic data is missing.
  Classification or characteristic values expected for a supplier are not maintained.
  The system is trying to copy or reference data from a supplier that does not have the required characteristic data.
