• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CK129 - No plant specified for material &, item &, operation & ?

  The SAP error message CK129 "No plant specified for material &, item &, operation &" typically occurs in the context of product costing or when working with material master data in SAP. This error indicates that the system cannot find a plant associated with the specified material, item, or operation in the costing process.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Plant Assignment: The material does not have a plant assigned in the material master data. This can happen if the material has not been created or extended to the relevant plant.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the material or the costing variant may not be set up correctly, leading to the system not being able to find the necessary plant information.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing entries in the relevant tables that link materials to plants.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to transaction code MM03 (Display Material) and enter the material number.
  Check if the material is extended to the relevant plant. If not, you may need to extend the material to the plant using transaction code MM01 (Create Material) or MM02 (Change Material).
  
  
  
  Verify Plant Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the plant is correctly assigned in the material master data. You can check the "Plant Data" views to confirm this.
  
  
  
  Costing Variant Configuration:
  
  Check the costing variant settings in transaction code OKKN (Costing Variants). Ensure that the costing variant is configured to include the necessary plants.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Consistency:
  
  Use transaction code SE16 or SE11 to check the relevant tables (like MARC for plant data) to ensure that the material is correctly linked to the plant.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Costing:
  
  After making the necessary corrections, re-run the costing process to see if the error persists.
