• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK080 - Material & plant &: BOM not active ?

  The SAP error message CK080, which states "Material & plant &: BOM not active," typically occurs when you are trying to perform a costing run or access a Bill of Materials (BOM) for a material that is not currently active in the specified plant. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Inactive BOM: The BOM for the specified material and plant is not active. This can happen if the BOM has been created but not released or if it has been deleted or marked as inactive.
  Plant-Specific BOM: The BOM may exist for a different plant but not for the one you are trying to access.
  Validity Dates: The BOM may have validity dates that do not include the date you are trying to use it.
  BOM Status: The BOM might be in a status that does not allow it to be used for costing or production.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check BOM Status:
  
  Go to transaction code CS03 (Display BOM) and enter the material and plant to check if the BOM exists and is active.
  If the BOM is inactive, you may need to activate it or create a new BOM.
  
  
  
  Release the BOM:
  
  If the BOM is in a draft or inactive state, you can release it using transaction code CS01 (Create BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM) to set it to an active status.
  
  
  
  Check Validity Dates:
  
  Ensure that the validity dates of the BOM cover the date you are trying to use it. If necessary, adjust the validity dates.
  
  
  
  Create/Change BOM for the Plant:
  
  If the BOM does not exist for the specified plant, you will need to create a new BOM for that plant using transaction code CS01.
  
  
  
  Check for Alternative BOMs:
  
  If there are alternative BOMs, ensure that the correct one is being referenced for the costing or production process.
  
  
  
  Consult with a SAP Consultant:
  
  If you are unsure about the changes or if the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with a SAP functional consultant who specializes in the relevant module (e.g., Production Planning, Material Management).
