• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M3073 - No materials planning: all relevant MRP fields will be reset ?

  The SAP error message M3073 "No materials planning: all relevant MRP fields will be reset" typically occurs when you are trying to perform a materials planning operation (like running MRP) on a material that is not set up for planning in the system. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Causes:
  
  
  Material Master Settings: The material in question may not have the necessary MRP views maintained in the material master. If the MRP type is set to "ND" (No MRP), the system will not plan for that material.
  
  
  MRP Type: The MRP type assigned to the material may indicate that it should not be planned. Common MRP types that lead to this error include "ND" (No MRP) or "EX" (External Procurement).
  
  
  Planning Parameters: The planning parameters for the material may not be set correctly, or the material may be flagged for deletion.
  
  
  Plant Settings: The plant settings for the material may not allow for planning, or the material may not be assigned to a valid plant.
  
  
  Status Flags: The material may have status flags that prevent it from being included in planning, such as being marked as obsolete or inactive.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Material Master: Go to the material master (transaction code MM03) and check the MRP views. Ensure that the MRP type is appropriate for the material and that all necessary fields are filled out correctly.
  
  
  Change MRP Type: If the MRP type is set to "ND" or another non-planning type, consider changing it to a planning type that suits your business needs (e.g., "PD" for MRP).
  
  
  Review Planning Parameters: Ensure that all relevant planning parameters (like lot size, safety stock, etc.) are set correctly in the material master.
  
  
  Check Plant Assignment: Verify that the material is assigned to the correct plant and that the plant settings allow for MRP.
  
  
  Remove Deletion Flag: If the material is flagged for deletion, you may need to remove that flag if you intend to include it in planning.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the settings, consult your organization's SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for guidance.
