• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FRMLMSC136 - No density has been specified for specification &1 ?

  The SAP error message FRMLMSC136 indicates that there is no density specified for a material specification in the system. This error typically arises in the context of material management, particularly when dealing with formulations or recipes in SAP.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A material specification is being processed (for example, in a formulation or recipe) but does not have a density value defined.
  The density is required for calculations related to the material, such as weight-volume conversions, and is missing in the material master or specification.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Specification:
  
  Go to the material specification in question (using transaction codes like C202 for specifications).
  Verify if the density value is defined. If it is missing, you will need to enter the appropriate density value.
  
  
  
  Update Material Master:
  
  If the material is linked to a material master record, check the material master data (transaction code MM02).
  Navigate to the relevant views (like Basic Data 1 or Basic Data 2) and ensure that the density is specified in the appropriate field.
  
  
  
  Consult with Formulation/Recipe Team:
  
  If you are not responsible for maintaining the material specifications, consult with the team that manages formulations or recipes to ensure that the density is correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no dependencies or conditions that might affect the density specification. Sometimes, the density might be conditionally required based on other parameters.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary updates, test the process again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Material Specifications: These are used in various industries (like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc.) to define the properties of materials, including physical properties like density.
  Density in Formulations: Density is crucial for calculating quantities in formulations, especially when converting between weight and volume.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more details on material specifications and how to manage them effectively.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
