• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CO579 - Order &1: Master data incorrect for parallel discontinuation (Matl &2) ?

  The SAP error message CO579 indicates that there is an issue with the master data related to a production order, specifically concerning parallel discontinuation. This error typically arises when there are inconsistencies or missing data in the material master or the production order that prevent the system from processing the order correctly.
  Cause:
  
  Material Master Data Issues: The material specified in the error message may have incorrect or incomplete data in the material master record. This could include missing or incorrect settings for the material type, status, or other relevant fields.
  Order Configuration: The production order may not be configured correctly for parallel discontinuation. This could involve settings related to the order type or the specific parameters for the production process.
  Discontinuation Settings: The settings for discontinuation in the material master or the production order may not be aligned, leading to conflicts when trying to process the order.
  Status of the Material: The material may be in a status that does not allow for parallel discontinuation, such as being blocked or inactive.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) for the material specified in the error message.
  Verify that all relevant fields are correctly filled out, especially those related to production and discontinuation.
  Ensure that the material is active and not blocked for production.
  
  
  
  Review Production Order Configuration:
  
  Check the production order settings (transaction code CO03) to ensure that it is set up correctly for parallel discontinuation.
  Look for any inconsistencies in the order type or parameters that may affect the processing.
  
  
  
  Adjust Discontinuation Settings:
  
  If applicable, review the discontinuation settings in the material master and ensure they are correctly configured to allow for parallel processing.
  Make any necessary adjustments to align the settings between the material master and the production order.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
