• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C5612 - Date of production version does not match BOM alternative ?

  The SAP error message C5612, "Date of production version does not match BOM alternative," typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the production version and the Bill of Materials (BOM) alternative in terms of their effective dates. This can happen in scenarios where you are trying to create or change a production order, and the system checks the validity of the production version against the BOM alternative.
  Cause:
  
  Date Mismatch: The production version you are trying to use has a validity period that does not align with the validity period of the BOM alternative.
  BOM Alternative Not Active: The BOM alternative you are trying to use may not be active for the date you are working with.
  Production Version Not Defined: The production version may not be defined for the specific material or plant combination you are using.
  Changes in BOM or Production Version: Recent changes to the BOM or production version may not have been updated or reflected correctly in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Validity Dates: Verify the validity dates of both the production version and the BOM alternative. Ensure that the dates align and that the production version is valid for the date of the production order.
  Review BOM Alternatives: Go to the BOM (using transaction CS02) and check the alternatives available. Ensure that the alternative you are trying to use is active and valid for the required date.
  Update Production Version: If necessary, update the production version to ensure it matches the BOM alternative. You can do this in transaction C202 (Change Production Version).
  Check Material Master: Ensure that the material master data is correctly set up, including the production version and BOM settings.
  Consult Change Logs: If there have been recent changes, check the change logs for the BOM and production version to understand what modifications were made and if they could be causing the issue.
  Recreate Production Version: If the issue persists, consider recreating the production version to ensure it is correctly linked to the BOM alternative.
