• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FSH_PP_ORD311 - Copy of BOM not allowed ;Control Data for BOM of plants &1 and &2 is '1'. ?

  The SAP error message FSH_PP_ORD311 indicates that there is an issue with copying a Bill of Materials (BOM) due to the control data settings for the BOM in the specified plants. The error message specifically states that the control data for the BOM of plants &1 and &2 is set to '1', which typically means that the BOM is marked as "not copyable."
  Cause:
  
  Control Data Settings: The BOM in question has control data settings that prevent it from being copied. This is often due to the configuration in the BOM master data where the "Copying Allowed" indicator is set to 'No' or similar settings that restrict copying.
  Plant-Specific Settings: The BOM may be plant-specific, and the settings for the plants involved do not allow for the BOM to be copied from one plant to another.
  BOM Status: The BOM might be in a status that does not allow copying, such as being locked or in a state of change.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check BOM Control Data: 
  
  Go to the BOM master data in SAP (Transaction Code: CS03 or CS02).
  Check the control data for the BOM in both plants. Look for indicators related to copying and ensure that they are set to allow copying.
  
  
  
  Modify BOM Settings:
  
  If the control data settings are preventing copying, you may need to change the settings to allow copying. This can be done by editing the BOM in the relevant plant and adjusting the control data.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review the SAP documentation or configuration guides related to BOM management to understand the implications of changing control data settings.
  
  
  
  Check User Authorizations: 
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to modify BOMs and their control data settings.

  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to BOM management that might provide additional insights or solutions for similar issues.
