• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE674 - Quality management control key is mandatory ?

  The SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE674 indicates that a Quality Management (QM) control key is mandatory for the operation you are trying to perform. This error typically arises in scenarios where quality management processes are integrated into production or procurement activities, and the system requires a QM control key to proceed.
  Cause:
  
  Missing QM Control Key: The most common cause of this error is that the relevant master data (such as material master or routing) does not have a QM control key assigned.
  Configuration Issues: The system may not be properly configured to handle quality management processes for the specific material or process.
  Document Type Settings: The document type being used may not be set up to require a QM control key, or it may be incorrectly configured.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM02).
  Check the Quality Management view and ensure that a valid QM control key is assigned to the material.
  If it is missing, you will need to add a QM control key that is appropriate for the material.
  
  
  
  Review Routing:
  
  If applicable, check the routing for the production process (transaction code CA01 or CA02).
  Ensure that the operations in the routing have the necessary QM control key assigned.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration settings for Quality Management in the SAP system (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to the relevant sections under Quality Management to ensure that the control keys are defined correctly.
  
  
  
  Document Type Settings:
  
  If the error occurs during a specific transaction (like creating a production order), check the document type settings in the configuration to ensure that it is set up to require a QM control key.
  
  
  
  User Authorization:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify the QM control key settings.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  QM Control Key: This key determines how quality management processes are applied to a material or operation. It can dictate whether inspections are required, how results are recorded, and what actions are taken based on those results.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  MM02: Change Material Master
  CA01: Create Routing
