• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDG_BS_MAT_MKAL_API102 - Task list does not exist ?

  The SAP error message MDG_BS_MAT_MKAL_API102: Task list does not exist typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when there is an attempt to execute a task or process that relies on a specific task list that is not found in the system. This can happen during the creation or modification of material master data.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Task List: The task list that is being referenced in the process does not exist in the system. This could be due to configuration issues or the task list not being created.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the MDG process may not be set up correctly, leading to the system looking for a task list that is not defined.
  Transport Issues: If the task list was recently transported from another system (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been transported correctly or at all.
  Versioning Issues: There may be a version mismatch where the task list exists in one version of the system but not in another.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Task List Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant configuration settings in the MDG application and verify that the task list exists and is correctly defined.
  Use transaction code MDGIMG to access the configuration and check the task list settings.
  
  
  
  Create or Activate Task List:
  
  If the task list does not exist, you may need to create it. This can be done through the MDG configuration settings.
  If it exists but is inactive, ensure that it is activated.
  
  
  
  Transport Management:
  
  If the task list was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure that it was successfully transported.
  If it was not transported, you may need to manually create it in the target system or re-transport it.
  
  
  
  Check for Customizations:
  
  If there are customizations in your MDG setup, ensure that they are not interfering with the standard task list processing.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to MDG and task lists for any specific instructions or known issues.
