• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 61701 - There is no pegged requirement for planned order &1 ?

  The SAP error message "61701: There is no pegged requirement for planned order &1" typically occurs in the context of production planning and material requirements planning (MRP) when there is an attempt to process a planned order that does not have a corresponding pegged requirement. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to convert a planned order to a production order or when performing other operations that require a pegged requirement.
  Cause:
  
  No Pegged Requirement: The planned order does not have any associated pegged requirements, meaning there are no sales orders, production orders, or other demand elements that the planned order is fulfilling.
  Incorrect MRP Settings: The MRP settings may not be configured correctly, leading to a lack of pegging.
  Order Deletion or Changes: The pegged requirements may have been deleted or changed after the planned order was created.
  Planning Run Issues: If the planning run did not consider certain requirements or if there were issues during the planning process, this could lead to a lack of pegged requirements.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Pegged Requirements: Verify if there are any pegged requirements for the planned order in question. You can do this by checking the MRP list or the stock/requirements list (MD04).
  Re-run MRP: If there are no pegged requirements, consider re-running the MRP to generate new requirements that can be pegged to the planned order.
  Review MRP Settings: Ensure that the MRP settings for the material are correctly configured to allow for pegging. This includes checking the MRP type, lot size, and other relevant parameters.
  Manual Adjustment: If necessary, you can manually create a pegged requirement (e.g., a sales order) that corresponds to the planned order.
  Check for Deletions: Investigate if any related orders or requirements were deleted or modified, which could have led to the absence of pegged requirements.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) and MD05 (MRP List) to analyze the situation further.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for more detailed information on MRP and pegging concepts.
