• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 61155 - Sales order does not allow make-to-order production ?

  The SAP error message 61155, "Sales order does not allow make-to-order production," typically occurs when there is an attempt to create a make-to-order (MTO) production order for a sales order that is not configured to allow MTO processing. This can happen for various reasons related to the configuration of the sales order, the material, or the production settings.
  Causes:
  
  
  Sales Order Type Configuration: The sales order type may not be set up to allow make-to-order production. Certain sales order types are configured for make-to-stock (MTS) production instead.
  
  
  Material Master Settings: The material in question may not be set up for MTO production. The material master record should have the appropriate settings in the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) view.
  
  
  Item Category: The item category of the sales order line item may not be configured for MTO. Each item category has specific settings that determine how it behaves in relation to production.
  
  
  Production Settings: The production settings in the configuration may not allow for MTO production for the specific material or sales order type.
  
  
  Availability Check: If the availability check is set to a type that does not allow MTO, it may lead to this error.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Sales Order Type: Review the configuration of the sales order type in transaction VOV8. Ensure that it is set up to allow make-to-order production.
  
  
  Review Material Master: Go to transaction MM03 and check the MRP view of the material. Ensure that the "MTO" indicator is set correctly. The MRP type should typically be set to "PD" (for MTO).
  
  
  Verify Item Category: Check the item category of the sales order line item in transaction VOV4. Ensure that it is configured to allow MTO production.
  
  
  Adjust Production Settings: If necessary, adjust the production settings in the configuration to allow MTO for the specific material or sales order type.
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team: If you are unsure about the settings, consult with your SAP configuration team or a functional consultant who specializes in sales and distribution (SD) and production planning (PP).
