• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT247 - Ingredient &1 is not a tradeable co-product ?

  The SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT247 Ingredient &1 is not a tradeable co-product typically occurs in the context of the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or SAP S/4HANA environments, particularly when dealing with co-products and by-products in production processes.
  Cause:
  This error indicates that the ingredient specified (denoted by &1) is not defined as a tradeable co-product in the system. In SAP, co-products are products that are produced simultaneously in a manufacturing process, and they can be sold or traded. If an ingredient is not set up as a tradeable co-product, the system will not allow certain operations or transactions involving that ingredient.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Ingredient Configuration:
  
  Go to the material master record of the ingredient in question.
  Ensure that the ingredient is defined as a co-product in the material master. You can do this by checking the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Sales, and Plant Data).
  
  
  
  Define as Tradeable Co-Product:
  
  If the ingredient is not set as a tradeable co-product, you may need to adjust its configuration. This can typically be done in the material master by setting the appropriate indicators.
  Navigate to the transaction code MM02 (Change Material) and update the necessary fields to classify the ingredient as a tradeable co-product.
  
  
  
  Check Production Process:
  
  Review the production process or recipe where this ingredient is used. Ensure that the ingredient is correctly defined in the context of the production process.
  If necessary, update the production version or recipe to include the ingredient as a tradeable co-product.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions on how to configure co-products and by-products in your version of SAP.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the process again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Material Master: The material master is a central repository of information about materials in SAP. It contains data related to purchasing, sales, inventory management, and production.
  Co-Products and By-Products: In manufacturing, co-products are products that are produced simultaneously and have significant economic value, while by-products are secondary products that may have lesser value.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM01 (Create Material), MM02 (Change Material), and C223 (Define Co-Products) for managing material configurations.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in production planning and control.
