• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 40807 - Insp. lots, origin "03" can only be used for header mat. in proc. order ?

  The SAP error message "40807: Insp. lots, origin '03' can only be used for header mat. in proc. order" typically occurs in the context of quality management (QM) and production order processing. This error indicates that the inspection lot you are trying to use is associated with a specific origin (in this case, "03" which usually refers to inspection lots created for production orders) and can only be applied to the header material of a production order.
  Cause:
  
  Inspection Lot Origin: The inspection lot has an origin that restricts its use. Origin "03" is specifically for inspection lots created for the header material of a production order.
  Incorrect Assignment: You may be trying to assign or use the inspection lot for a component or sub-item in the production order instead of the header material.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the Quality Management module that are not aligned with your intended use of inspection lots.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Inspection Lot Assignment: Ensure that you are using the inspection lot for the correct material. It should be assigned to the header material of the production order.
  Review Production Order: Verify that you are working with the correct production order and that the inspection lot is intended for the header material.
  Create New Inspection Lot: If you need to inspect a component or sub-item, you may need to create a new inspection lot with the appropriate origin for that specific material.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP QM configuration team to ensure that the settings for inspection lot origins are correctly configured for your business processes.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on inspection lot origins and their usage.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as QA32 (Display Inspection Lots) and CO02 (Change Production Order) to manage inspection lots and production orders.
  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is involved, check for any user exits or BAdIs that might affect the handling of inspection lots.
