• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ATP_ABC_LOGIC003 - Item &2 of Order &1 not ATP checked as no substitute was found. ?

  The SAP error message ATP_ABC_LOGIC003 indicates that an item in a sales order (or another type of order) was not available-to-promise (ATP) checked because no substitute material was found. This typically occurs in scenarios where the system is configured to look for substitute materials when the requested item is not available.
  Cause:
  
  No Substitute Material Defined: The item in question does not have any substitute materials defined in the material master or in the configuration settings.
  ATP Configuration: The ATP check settings may not be configured to allow for substitutes, or the substitute materials may not be properly set up in the system.
  Stock Availability: The original item may not be available in stock, and the system is attempting to find a substitute but fails to do so.
  Material Master Settings: The material master record for the item may not have the necessary settings for substitutes.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Substitute Materials:
  
  Go to the material master record for the item in question and check if substitute materials are defined. You can do this in transaction code MM02 (Change Material).
  Navigate to the "Sales: Sales Org. Data" or "Basic Data" views and check the "Substitutes" section to add any relevant substitute materials.
  
  
  
  Check ATP Configuration:
  
  Review the ATP configuration settings in the system. You can do this in transaction code OMDU (Define ATP Check).
  Ensure that the settings allow for substitutes to be considered during the ATP check.
  
  
  
  Review Stock Levels:
  
  Check the stock levels for the original item and any defined substitutes. You can use transaction code MMBE to view stock levels.
  If the original item is out of stock, ensure that the substitutes are also available.
  
  
  
  Material Master Settings:
  
  Ensure that the material master settings for the item and its substitutes are correctly configured. This includes checking the availability check settings and ensuring that the materials are set up for sales.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform a test ATP check for the order to see if the issue is resolved.
