• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CPCL_VERS125 - Two different effectivity types found for operation &1 ?

  The SAP error message CPCL_VERS125 indicates that there are two different effectivity types found for a specific operation in a production or planning context. This typically occurs in the context of production orders, routing, or bill of materials (BOM) where the system expects a single effectivity type but finds multiple entries.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Effectivity Types: The operation in question has been defined with more than one effectivity type (e.g., different versions or configurations) in the routing or BOM.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, such as routing or BOM, where the same operation is assigned different effectivity types.
  Configuration Issues: If the system is set up to handle multiple configurations or versions, it may not be able to resolve which effectivity type to use for the operation.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Routing/BOM: Review the routing or BOM associated with the operation. Ensure that there is only one effectivity type defined for the operation in question.
  Data Cleanup: If there are multiple entries, determine which one is correct and remove or adjust the others to ensure consistency.
  Effectivity Type Assignment: If the operation needs to support multiple effectivity types, consider restructuring the routing or BOM to accommodate this requirement properly.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on managing effectivity types in your specific version of SAP.
  Testing: After making changes, test the operation to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
  
  Related Information:
