• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 61700 - ***** COMMENT: Pegged orders PlOrd: No direct calls -> LTP ?

  The SAP error message 61700, which states "Pegged orders PlOrd: No direct calls -> LTP," typically relates to issues in the planning and scheduling processes within the SAP system, particularly in the context of production planning and control (PP) or advanced planning and optimization (APO).
  Cause:
  
  
  Pegging Issues: The error indicates that there are pegged orders (i.e., orders that are linked to specific requirements) that do not have a direct call to the Long-Term Planning (LTP) process. This can happen if the pegged orders are not properly linked to the planning process or if there are inconsistencies in the data.
  
  
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, such as material master records, bill of materials (BOM), or routing information that prevent the system from correctly identifying the relationships between orders.
  
  
  Planning Parameters: Incorrect planning parameters or settings in the LTP configuration can also lead to this error. If the planning strategy or the planning horizon is not set correctly, it may result in the system being unable to process the pegged orders.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Pegging Relationships: Review the pegging relationships in the system. Ensure that the pegged orders are correctly linked to the relevant requirements and that there are no missing links.
  
  
  Review Master Data: Verify the master data for the materials involved. Check the material master, BOM, and routing to ensure that all necessary information is complete and accurate.
  
  
  Adjust Planning Parameters: Review the planning parameters and settings in the LTP configuration. Ensure that the planning strategy, planning horizon, and other relevant settings are correctly configured.
  
  
  Run Planning Processes: If necessary, re-run the planning processes to refresh the data and ensure that all orders are correctly processed. This may include running the LTP or MRP (Material Requirements Planning) processes.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to this error message for any specific recommendations or patches that may address the issue.
