• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message XE080 - There were no small parcel carriers found on server & ?

  The SAP error message XE080, which states "There were no small parcel carriers found on server," typically occurs in the context of shipping and logistics within the SAP system, particularly when using the SAP Transportation Management (TM) or SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) modules. This error indicates that the system is unable to find any configured small parcel carriers for processing shipments.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Carrier Configuration: The most common cause is that there are no small parcel carriers configured in the system. This could be due to a lack of setup or incorrect configuration.
  Incorrect Server Settings: The server settings may not be correctly pointing to the relevant carrier data or may not have the necessary access to retrieve carrier information.
  Data Synchronization Issues: If the carrier data is supposed to be synchronized from another system (like a third-party logistics provider), there may be issues with that synchronization.
  Authorization Issues: The user or process attempting to access the carrier information may not have the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Carrier Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration settings in SAP (usually under Logistics or Transportation Management).
  Ensure that small parcel carriers are properly defined and activated.
  Verify that the carrier data is complete, including necessary details like service types, rates, and operational parameters.
  
  
  
  Review Server Settings:
  
  Check the server settings to ensure that they are correctly configured to access the carrier data.
  Ensure that the server is connected to the correct database or system where the carrier information is stored.
  
  
  
  Data Synchronization:
  
  If using third-party carriers, ensure that the integration or data synchronization processes are functioning correctly.
  Check for any errors in the data transfer logs that might indicate issues with retrieving carrier data.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user or process has the necessary authorizations to access the carrier information.
  Review user roles and permissions in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Testing and Validation:
  
  After making changes, perform tests to validate that the small parcel carriers are now recognized by the system.
  Use transaction codes like /SCMTMS/PRC or /SCWM/PRC to check the status of the carriers.
