  The SAP error message "61851 No MRP lists exist" typically occurs when you are trying to access or generate Material Requirements Planning (MRP) lists, but the system cannot find any existing MRP lists for the specified criteria. This can happen for several reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:
  
  
  No MRP Run Executed: The most common reason for this error is that no MRP run has been executed for the material in question. If MRP has not been run, there will be no MRP lists generated.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used to access the MRP lists may be incorrect or too restrictive, leading to no results being found.
  
  
  MRP Lists Deleted: MRP lists may have been deleted or archived, which would result in the system not being able to find any existing lists.
  
  
  Material Not Set for MRP: The material may not be set up for MRP in the material master data, which means it won't generate any MRP lists.
  
  
  Plant or Storage Location Issues: The specified plant or storage location may not have any MRP data associated with it.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Execute MRP Run: Ensure that an MRP run has been executed for the relevant materials. You can do this using transaction code MD01 (for total planning) or MD02 (for single-item planning).
  
  
  Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria you are using to access the MRP lists. Make sure they are correct and not overly restrictive.
  
  
  Review Material Master Data: Check the material master data to ensure that the MRP views are properly maintained and that the material is set for MRP.
  
  
  Check MRP List Status: Use transaction code MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) to check if there are any stock or requirements for the material. This can help you determine if the MRP run was successful.
  
  
  Consult with SAP Basis or Functional Team: If you suspect that MRP lists have been deleted or archived, consult with your SAP Basis or functional team to investigate further.
