• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 29107 - Lot size to cannot be less than lot size from ?

  The SAP error message "29107: Lot size to cannot be less than lot size from" typically occurs in the context of production planning or inventory management when dealing with lot sizes in a material master or production order. This error indicates that the specified lot size for the "to" (or target) quantity is smaller than the lot size defined for the "from" (or source) quantity, which is not allowed according to the system's configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Lot Size Configuration: The lot size defined for the material in the material master or production order is set in such a way that it requires a minimum quantity to be processed. If the "to" quantity is set below this minimum, the error will occur.
  Production Order Settings: If you are trying to create or modify a production order, the lot size settings in the order may not align with the material's defined lot size.
  Batch Management: If batch management is enabled, the lot sizes for batches may also be causing the discrepancy.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Lot Size Settings:
  
  Go to the material master (transaction code MM03) and check the lot size settings under the relevant views (e.g., MRP view).
  Ensure that the lot size for the "to" quantity is equal to or greater than the lot size for the "from" quantity.
  
  
  
  Adjust Production Order:
  
  If you are working with a production order, check the order's lot size settings. You may need to adjust the order quantity to meet the minimum lot size requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Batch Management:
  
  If batch management is in use, ensure that the batch sizes are correctly defined and that the quantities being processed align with these sizes.
  
  
  
  Consult Configuration:
  
  If you have access to configuration settings, review the settings related to lot size in the relevant configuration areas (e.g., MRP settings, production planning).
