3294064 - Warning "The source of supply cannot be determined; check the sourcing-relevant master data" in Sales Order

Symptom

You have the Sales Order XXX, however when entering the Source of Supply, a warning is faced.

XXX means Sales Order ID.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Sales Orders work center. 
  2. Select the Sales Orders view.
  3. Find the Sales Order XXX. 
  4. Open the Sales Order XXX.
  5. Click View All.
  6. Go to the Items tab.
  7. Check the Availability for the affected item. 
  8. The warning is faced:

"The source of supply cannot be determined; check the sourcing-relevant master data."

Cause

The warning is occurring because the system cannot find a valid Transport Lane. In this case, in the sourcing engine, the relevant Transport Zone(s) is retrieved based of the following parameters: Country code, Region code and Postal code.

In the Transport Zone, Country code and Postal code are provided and the only relevant transportation zone is GLOBAL_TZ. However, there is no active Transport Lane from site which you want to use as source for Transport Zone GLOBAL_TZ. Hence, the source of supply engine returns no values and the error is thrown.

Resolution

 The three parameters which will be used in the sourcing engine need to be set: Country code, Region code and Postal code:

  1. Go to the Supply Chain Design Master Data work center. 
  2. Select the Transport Zones view. 
  3. Find the relevant Transport Zone. 
  4. Edit it. 
  5. Maintain the parameters Country code, Region code and Postal code.
