• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KP484 - In kanban &1 batch &2 is not in stock ?

  The SAP error message KP484 indicates that a specific Kanban (identified by &1) and batch (identified by &2) is not in stock. This error typically arises in the context of Kanban management within SAP, particularly when trying to process or consume a Kanban that is expected to have stock available but does not.
  Cause:
  
  
  Stock Availability: The most common cause is that the specified batch of the Kanban is not available in the inventory. This could be due to:
  
  The batch has been completely consumed.
  The batch has not been produced or received yet.
  The batch has been moved to a different location or has been reserved for another purpose.
  
  
  
  Batch Management Settings: If batch management is enabled for the material, the system expects specific batches to be available. If the batch is not found in the stock, this error will occur.
  
  
  Incorrect Kanban Configuration: The Kanban setup might be incorrect, leading to the system looking for a batch that does not exist or is not properly linked to the Kanban.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Stock Levels: Verify the stock levels for the material in question. Use transaction codes like MMBE (Stock Overview) to check if the batch exists and is available.
  
  
  Review Batch Management: Ensure that the batch you are trying to consume is correctly set up in the system. Check if the batch is marked as available and not blocked or reserved.
  
  
  Adjust Kanban Settings: Review the Kanban configuration to ensure that it is correctly set up to reference the appropriate batches. You may need to adjust the Kanban settings or the material master data.
  
  
  Replenish Stock: If the batch is genuinely out of stock, you may need to produce or receive more stock to fulfill the Kanban requirement.
  
  
  Check for Errors in Previous Transactions: Sometimes, previous transactions may not have been completed correctly, leading to discrepancies in stock levels. Review any recent transactions related to the material and batch.
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MB1A (Goods Withdrawal), MB1B (Transfer Posting), and MB52 (List of Warehouse Stocks on Hand) to manage stock and batches effectively.
  Batch Management: Understand how batch management works in SAP, including how to create, manage, and track batches.
  Kanban Process: Review the Kanban process in SAP, including how to set up Kanban control cycles and manage Kanban signals.
