  The SAP error message E0672, which states "Combination not possible: & not released," typically occurs in the context of material management or production planning when there is an attempt to use a combination of materials, plants, or other entities that have not been properly released or activated in the system.

  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the system to ensure that the combination you are trying to use is allowed. This may involve checking settings in customizing (SPRO).
