• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 29116 - Material type & not supported for BOM usage & ?

  The SAP error message 29116 indicates that the material type specified is not supported for the Bill of Materials (BOM) usage you are trying to create or modify. This error typically arises when you attempt to create a BOM for a material type that is not configured to allow BOMs in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Material Type Configuration: The material type you are using does not have BOMs enabled in its configuration. In SAP, each material type can have specific settings that determine whether it can be used in BOMs.
  BOM Usage: The BOM usage you are trying to assign may not be compatible with the material type. Different usages (like production, engineering, etc.) may have restrictions on which material types can be used.
  Custom Settings: If your organization has customized the material types or BOM settings, there may be additional restrictions in place.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Type Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code OMS2 to check the configuration of the material type.
  Look for the settings related to BOMs and ensure that the material type is allowed for the desired BOM usage.
  
  
  
  Change Material Type:
  
  If the current material type does not support BOMs, consider changing the material type to one that does. This can be done in the material master record using transaction code MM02.
  
  
  
  Review BOM Usage:
  
  Ensure that the BOM usage you are trying to use is appropriate for the material type. You can check the allowed usages for the material type in the configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Basis or Functional Consultant:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration or need to make changes, consult with your SAP Basis or functional consultant to ensure that the changes align with your organization's processes.
