This error typically arises when the system cannot find a valid control key for the specified operation in the routing or production order.
  Cause:
  
  Undefined Control Key: The control key specified in the operation is not defined in the system. This could happen if the control key was deleted or not properly configured.
  Incorrect Routing: The routing associated with the production order may not have the correct control key assigned to the operation.

  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, such as the material master or routing data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Control Key Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code OPL8 (Control Key Configuration) and verify if the control key in question is defined and properly configured.
  Ensure that the control key is assigned to the correct operations and has the necessary settings for the production process.
  
  
  
  Review Routing:

  Ensure that the operations in the routing have the correct control key assigned.
  
  
  
  Update Production Order:
  
  If the control key is missing or incorrect, you may need to update the production order or process order with the correct routing or control key.
