• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CS093 - Versions with coding & still exist ?

  The SAP error message CS093 ("Versions with coding & still exist") typically occurs in the context of SAP's Material Management (MM) or Production Planning (PP) modules, particularly when dealing with bills of materials (BOMs) or routing versions. This error indicates that there are still active versions of a BOM or routing that have not been deleted or archived, which prevents the system from performing certain actions, such as deleting or changing the version.
  Cause:
  
  Active Versions: The primary cause of this error is that there are still active versions of the BOM or routing that are linked to the material or production process.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies or references to these versions in other documents or processes, such as production orders, purchase orders, or sales orders.
  Incorrect Deletion Process: Attempting to delete or change a BOM or routing version without properly managing the existing versions can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CS093 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Active Versions:
  
  Use transaction code CS03 (Display BOM) or CA03 (Display Routing) to check the existing versions of the BOM or routing.
  Identify which versions are still active and need to be addressed.
  
  
  
  Delete or Archive Versions:
  
  If you need to delete a version, ensure that it is not being used in any active production orders or other documents.
  Use transaction code CS02 (Change BOM) or CA02 (Change Routing) to delete the version if it is no longer needed.
  If you want to keep the version for historical purposes, consider archiving it instead.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Review any dependent documents (like production orders) that may be referencing the BOM or routing version. You may need to delete or change these documents before you can modify the BOM or routing.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help files for specific instructions related to your version of SAP, as the steps may vary slightly depending on the system configuration.
  
  
  
  System Administrator:
  
  If you are unable to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP system administrator or support team for further assistance. They may have access to additional tools or logs that can help diagnose the problem.
