How To Fix COOS074 - MRP type for material &1 does not have value 'No MRP'

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: COOS - Order Split

• Message number: 074

• Message text: MRP type for material &1 does not have value 'No MRP'

What causes this issue?

Material &V1&, which is used for cost transfer in the case of an order
split, can currently be used in MRP. However, the corresponding batch of
the material that is passed on to the child order in the order split
should not be used elsewhere because this may lead to follow-on problems
such as:
No cost transfer to split child order
No batch tracing between parent and child order possible

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

As a preventive measure, the material should be flagged as non-MRP-
relevant in its master record.

System Response

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COOS074 - MRP type for material &1 does not have value 'No MRP' ?

  The SAP error message COOS074 indicates that the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) type for a specific material does not have the value 'No MRP' assigned to it. This error typically arises when you are trying to perform a transaction that requires the material to be set up in a way that does not involve MRP, but the current configuration does not reflect that.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect MRP Type Assignment: The material in question has an MRP type assigned that does not allow for 'No MRP' processing.
  Material Master Data Configuration: The material master data may not be correctly configured, leading to this error when trying to execute MRP-related transactions.
  Transaction Context: The transaction you are trying to execute may require the material to be set up with 'No MRP', but the current MRP type does not support this.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the Material Master (Transaction Code: MM03).
  Check the MRP views (usually MRP 1, MRP 2, etc.) to see what MRP type is assigned to the material.
  If the MRP type is not 'No MRP', you may need to change it.
  
  
  
  Change MRP Type:
  
  If you determine that the material should indeed have 'No MRP', you can change the MRP type.
  Use Transaction Code: MM02 to modify the material master.
  Navigate to the MRP views and change the MRP type to 'No MRP' (which is typically represented by the code 'ND' or similar, depending on your configuration).
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Team:
  
  If you are unsure about changing the MRP type or if it affects other processes, consult with your SAP functional team or a materials management consultant.
  They can provide guidance on the implications of changing the MRP type and ensure that it aligns with your business processes.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you have access, review the configuration settings for MRP types in the system (Transaction Code: OMD0).
  Ensure that the MRP type 'No MRP' is correctly defined and available for use.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  MRP Types: MRP types determine how materials are planned in SAP. Common types include 'PD' (MRP), 'ND' (No MRP), 'VB' (Manual Reorder Point), etc.
  Material Master Views: The material master has several views, and the MRP views are crucial for determining how the material is managed in terms of inventory and planning.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on MRP types and their configurations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the COOS074 error and ensure that the material is correctly configured for your planning needs.
