• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C0595 - Phase &3, proc. instr. &4: Enter allowed value for characteristic &2 ?

  The SAP error message C0595 typically occurs in the context of variant configuration or when working with characteristics in a configurable material. This error indicates that the value entered for a characteristic is not allowed based on the configuration settings defined in the system.
  Cause:
  The error message C0595 is triggered when:
  
  A user attempts to enter a value for a characteristic that is not valid according to the allowed values defined in the configuration profile.
  The characteristic may have specific constraints or dependencies that restrict the values that can be assigned.
  The configuration settings for the material or product may not be properly defined, leading to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the C0595 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Allowed Values:
  
  Review the configuration profile for the material in question. Go to the transaction code CU50 (Configuration Profile) or CU01 (Create Characteristics) to check the allowed values for the characteristic &2.
  Ensure that the value you are trying to enter is listed as an allowed value.
  
  
  
  Review Dependencies:
  
  Check if there are any dependencies (e.g., constraints, selection conditions) that might restrict the value you are trying to enter. You can do this in the configuration profile or by using transaction CU02 (Change Dependencies).
  
  
  
  Correct the Input:
  
  If the value you are trying to enter is indeed invalid, select a valid value from the list of allowed values.
  
  
  
  Update Configuration:
  
  If you need to add a new allowed value, you may need to update the configuration settings. This typically requires authorization and should be done by someone with the appropriate permissions.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making changes, test the configuration again to ensure that the error does not occur.

  Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP Help documentation for Variant Configuration for detailed information on characteristics, allowed values, and dependencies.
  
  
  
  User Authorization:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and modify configuration settings.
  
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the C0595 error and implement the necessary changes to resolve it.
