• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FSH_PP_ORD253 - BOM maintenance indicator is different for source and destination plants. ?

  The SAP error message FSH_PP_ORD253 indicates that there is a discrepancy in the Bill of Materials (BOM) maintenance indicator between the source and destination plants in the context of production orders or planning. This error typically arises when you are trying to transfer or create a production order that involves materials with BOMs that have different maintenance settings in different plants.
  Cause:
  
  Different BOM Maintenance Indicators: The BOM maintenance indicator defines how the BOM is managed and maintained in the system. If the source plant has a different BOM maintenance indicator compared to the destination plant, this error will occur.
  BOM Configuration: The BOM might be configured differently in the two plants, leading to inconsistencies in how the BOM is treated.
  Material Master Settings: The material master records for the materials involved may have different settings for the BOM maintenance indicator.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check BOM Maintenance Indicators: 
  
  Go to the BOM in the source and destination plants and check the BOM maintenance indicators. Ensure that they are consistent across both plants.
  You can check this in the BOM transaction (CS03) by entering the material and plant.
  
  
  
  Align BOM Settings: 
  
  If the BOM maintenance indicators are different, you may need to align them. This could involve changing the BOM maintenance indicator in one of the plants to match the other.
  You can do this by using transaction CS02 to change the BOM in the relevant plant.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data: 
  
  Check the material master data for the materials involved in the production order. Ensure that the BOM maintenance settings are consistent across the relevant plants.
  You can use transaction MM03 to view the material master data.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidelines on BOM maintenance indicators and their implications.
  
  
  
  Testing: 
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the process again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
