• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C/019 - No routing selected for local selection ?

  The SAP error message C/019 "No routing selected for local selection" typically occurs in the context of production planning and control, particularly when trying to create or process production orders, or when working with routing information in the system. This error indicates that the system could not find a valid routing for the material or operation you are trying to work with.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing Routing: The most common cause is that there is no routing defined for the material in question. This could be due to the routing not being created or assigned to the material master.
  
  
  Incorrect Plant Assignment: The routing may exist, but it is not assigned to the plant where the production order is being created or processed.
  
  
  Routing Status: The routing might be inactive or not valid for the current date.
  
  
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the transaction may not match any existing routings.
  
  
  Material Master Data: The material master may not be correctly set up to reference the routing.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Routing: Verify if a routing exists for the material in the relevant plant. You can do this by navigating to the routing transaction (e.g., CA03) and checking if the routing is defined.
  
  
  Create/Update Routing: If no routing exists, you may need to create one using transaction CA01. If it exists but is not assigned to the correct plant, you can copy or modify it accordingly.
  
  
  Check Material Master: Ensure that the material master (transaction MM03) is correctly set up to reference the routing. Check the "Work Scheduling" view to see if the routing is assigned.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: If you are using a specific selection criteria in your transaction, ensure that it is set correctly to match the existing routings.
  
  
  Check Validity Dates: Ensure that the routing is valid for the date you are trying to use it. If the routing is time-dependent, check the validity periods.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the routing process, consult SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CA01 (Create Routing), CA02 (Change Routing), CA03 (Display Routing), and MM03 (Display Material).
  Routing Types: Understand the different types of routings (e.g., standard routing, alternative routing) and how they are used in production processes.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and modify routings in the system.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the C/019 error and implement the appropriate solution.
