This error indicates that there is a missing or incorrect configuration in the assignment of a process code to a logical message type in the SAP system.

    Cause:

    2. Incorrect Mapping: The mapping between the logical message and the process code is either incorrect or not set up at all.
    3. Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from a development environment to production, it may not have been properly set up.
    4. Custom Development: If there are custom developments or modifications, they may not have been properly integrated with the standard EDI/IDoc processing.

    Solution:

    To resolve the EA596 error, follow these steps:

    1. Check Process Code Configuration:

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
