• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COOS025 - Split quantity 0 is not allowed ?

  The SAP error message COOS025, which states "Split quantity 0 is not allowed," typically occurs in the context of production orders or when dealing with the confirmation of operations in SAP. This error indicates that there is an attempt to split a quantity of zero, which is not permissible in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Zero Quantity Confirmation: The most common cause of this error is that a user is trying to confirm a production operation with a split quantity of zero. This can happen if the user mistakenly enters a zero quantity or if the system calculates a zero quantity based on previous entries.
  Incorrect Data Entry: Users may inadvertently enter incorrect data during the confirmation process, leading to a split quantity of zero.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the production order or routing that do not allow for zero quantities to be processed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Quantity Entries: Review the confirmation entries to ensure that the quantity being confirmed is greater than zero. If a split is necessary, ensure that at least one of the split quantities is greater than zero.
  Review Production Order: Check the production order and ensure that the quantities are correctly defined. If there are any discrepancies, correct them before attempting to confirm again.
  Adjust Confirmation Process: If the confirmation process involves splitting quantities, ensure that the logic used to determine split quantities does not result in a zero value.
  User Training: Provide training to users on how to correctly enter quantities during the confirmation process to avoid this error in the future.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling confirmations and splits in your version of SAP.
