G00313 - Details

• The SAP error message G00313 indicates that there is a problem with the hierarchy of items in a particular context, such as when working with a bill of materials (BOM), a sales order, or a similar structure where items are organized hierarchically. The message specifically states that "Item &1 must be below item &2 in the item hierarchy," meaning that the system expects item &1 to be a subordinate or child item of item &2, but it is not positioned correctly in the hierarchy.
  
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Hierarchical Structure: The items are not arranged in the expected parent-child relationship. This can happen if items are manually added or if there are changes in the hierarchy that have not been properly reflected in the system.
  Data Entry Errors: During the creation or modification of items, incorrect relationships may have been established.
  
  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings for the item hierarchy may not be set up correctly,
