  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GHO_ALLOC179 - Injected qty on WC &1 greater than disposition qty ?

    The SAP error message GHO_ALLOC179 indicates that the injected quantity on a work center (WC) is greater than the disposition quantity. This typically occurs in the context of production planning and inventory management, particularly when dealing with the allocation of materials to production orders.

    Cause:

    1. Quantity Mismatch: The injected quantity (the amount of material that is being allocated or used in production) exceeds the available or allowed quantity (disposition quantity) for that particular work center.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that do not align with the actual production requirements or inventory levels.
    3. Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during the creation of production orders or during the allocation process can lead to this error.
    4. Stock Availability: The stock available for allocation may not be sufficient to meet the injected quantity, leading to this discrepancy.

    Solution:

    1. Check Quantities: Verify the injected quantity and the disposition quantity for the work center. Ensure that the injected quantity does not exceed the available disposition quantity.
    2. Adjust Production Orders: If the injected quantity is indeed too high, consider adjusting the production order or the allocation to match the available disposition quantity.
    3. Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings related to the work center and production orders to ensure they are set up correctly.
