The SAP error message C2276, which states "Goods receipt posted: You cannot add a co-product," typically occurs in the context of production or inventory management when dealing with co-products in a manufacturing process. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
Cause:
Co-Product Definition: The error usually arises when you attempt to add a co-product to a goods receipt that has already been posted. In SAP, co-products are products that are produced simultaneously in a manufacturing process and are defined in the material master.
Goods Receipt Process: If a goods receipt has already been posted for a production order or a process order, the system does not allow modifications to the co-products associated with that order.
Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the material master or production order that restrict the addition of co-products after the goods receipt has been completed.
Solutions:
Check Goods Receipt Status: Verify if the goods receipt has indeed been posted. If it has, you cannot add co-products to that receipt. You may need to reverse the goods receipt if changes are necessary.
Reverse the Goods Receipt: If you need to add a co-product, you may need to reverse the existing goods receipt. This can be done using transaction code MBST (Cancel Goods Movement) or through the appropriate menu path.
Review Co-Product Configuration: Ensure that the co-products are correctly defined in the material master and that the production order is set up to allow for co-products. Check the configuration in the production order type and the material master settings.
Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to co-products and goods receipts for any specific guidelines or restrictions that may apply to your version of SAP.
User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to goods receipts and production orders.
Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP helpdesk for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
