• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE155 - No bill of product exists ?

  The SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE155, which states "No bill of product exists," typically occurs in the context of product costing or production planning when the system cannot find a valid bill of materials (BOM) for a specific product or material. This can happen for several reasons:
  Causes:
  
  Missing BOM: The most common cause is that a BOM has not been created for the material in question.
  Incorrect Material Type: The material may not be set up correctly in the system, or it may not be of a type that requires a BOM.
  Plant-Specific BOM: The BOM may exist, but it is not assigned to the specific plant where the operation is being executed.
  Status of BOM: The BOM might be inactive or not released for use.
  Versioning Issues: If there are multiple versions of a BOM, the system may not be able to find the correct version for the material.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to view the BOM.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Create or Update BOM: If no BOM exists, create one for the material using transaction code CS01 (Create BOM). Ensure that it is correctly configured for the relevant plant and material type.
  Check BOM Status: Verify that the BOM is active and released. You can check this using transaction code CS02 (Change BOM) or CS03 (Display BOM).
  Assign BOM to Plant: Ensure that the BOM is assigned to the correct plant. You can do this in the BOM configuration.
  Check Material Master: Review the material master data using transaction code MM03 to ensure that the material is set up correctly and is of the appropriate type.
  Version Control: If there are multiple versions of the BOM, ensure that the correct version is being referenced in the transaction.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the BOM data.
