  The SAP error message CKMLWIP001: No layout defined typically occurs in the context of the Material Ledger (ML) when you are trying to display or process data related to Work in Progress (WIP) but there is no layout defined for the report or transaction you are attempting to execute.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Layout Definition: The most common cause of this error is that there is no layout defined for the specific report or transaction you are trying to run. Layouts are used to format the output of reports and transactions in SAP.

  Go to the transaction code CKMLCP (for Material Ledger) or the relevant transaction where the error occurs.
  Check if a layout is defined for the report you are trying to execute. If not, you can create a new layout by using the layout management options available in the transaction.

  Verify that the necessary settings for WIP calculation and reporting are in place.
  
  
  
  User Authorizations:
