• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 40099 - No co-products in BOM of process material & ?

  The SAP error message "40099 No co-products in BOM of process material" typically occurs in the context of production planning and process manufacturing. This error indicates that the Bill of Materials (BOM) for a specific process material does not contain any co-products, which are additional products that are produced alongside the main product in a manufacturing process.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Co-Products in BOM: The primary cause of this error is that the BOM for the specified process material does not include any co-products. In process manufacturing, co-products are essential for defining the complete production process.
  Incorrect BOM Configuration: The BOM may not have been set up correctly, or the necessary co-products may not have been defined in the system.
  Material Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the material master data that prevent the system from recognizing the co-products.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the BOM: 
  
  Navigate to the BOM for the process material in question using transaction code CS03 (Display BOM).
  Verify if co-products are defined in the BOM. If not, you will need to add them.
  
  
  
  Add Co-Products:
  
  If co-products are missing, you can add them using transaction code CS01 (Create BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM).
  Ensure that you specify the correct quantities and other relevant details for the co-products.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Check the material master data for the process material using transaction code MM03 (Display Material).
  Ensure that the material is set up correctly for process manufacturing and that it is linked to the appropriate BOM.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to process manufacturing and BOM configuration to ensure that you are following the correct procedures.
  
  
  
  Testing: 
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the process again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Co-Products: In process manufacturing, co-products are products that are produced simultaneously with the main product. They can have significant value and should be accounted for in the BOM.
  BOM Types: Ensure that you are using the correct BOM type for process manufacturing, as there are different types of BOMs (e.g., standard BOM, variant BOM, etc.).
  Process Orders: If you are working with process orders, ensure that the order is correctly configured to recognize the co-products defined in the BOM.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in process manufacturing and BOM configuration.
