• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDGBP111 - Only &1 views may be assigned ?

  The SAP error message MDGBP111 ("Only &1 views may be assigned") typically occurs in the context of Material Master data management, particularly when dealing with the assignment of views in the Material Master.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when you attempt to assign more views to a material than are allowed by the system configuration. Each material can have a specific set of views (like Basic Data, Sales Data, Purchasing Data, etc.), and the system restricts the number of views that can be assigned based on the material type or other configuration settings.
  Solution:
  To resolve the MDGBP111 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the material type in transaction code OMN1 or SPRO.
  Verify the allowed views for the specific material type you are working with. Ensure that you are not exceeding the limit set for that material type.
  
  
  
  Review Assigned Views:
  
  Check the views that are currently assigned to the material. You can do this by using transaction code MM03 (Display Material) and reviewing the views that are already assigned.
  If you find that you have already assigned the maximum number of views, you may need to remove one or more views before adding a new one.
  
  
  
  Adjust View Assignment:
  
  If you need to change the views assigned to a material, you can do this in transaction code MM02 (Change Material). Remove the unnecessary views and then try to add the desired view again.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration or the views, refer to the SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or functional team for guidance.
  
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the material views. Lack of proper permissions can sometimes lead to errors.
