• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ME683 - Purchase requisition &1 &2 in the meantime deleted by MRP ?

  The SAP error message ME683 indicates that a purchase requisition has been deleted by the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process. This typically occurs when the MRP run determines that the purchase requisition is no longer needed due to changes in demand, supply, or inventory levels.
  Cause:
  
  Demand Changes: If the demand for a material has decreased or been canceled, the MRP may determine that the purchase requisition is unnecessary.
  Supply Adjustments: If there are changes in supply, such as a new production order or stock availability, the MRP may delete the requisition.
  Inventory Levels: If the inventory levels are sufficient to meet the demand, the MRP may remove the requisition to avoid overstocking.
  MRP Settings: Certain MRP settings or parameters may lead to the deletion of requisitions if they are deemed redundant.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review MRP Parameters: Check the MRP settings to ensure they are configured correctly for your business needs. This includes reviewing the planning strategy, lot sizing, and other relevant parameters.
  Analyze Demand and Supply: Look into the demand and supply situation for the material in question. Ensure that the demand is accurately reflected in the system and that there are no discrepancies.
  Check Purchase Requisition: Verify the details of the purchase requisition to ensure it is still valid and necessary. If it was created for a specific need that has changed, consider creating a new requisition.
  Run MRP Again: If you believe the requisition should not have been deleted, you can run the MRP again to see if it generates the requisition based on the current data.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for further insights into MRP behavior and settings.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) to analyze the stock situation and MRP results.
  MRP Type: Understand the MRP type assigned to the material (e.g., MRP, MPS, etc.) as it influences how the system processes requisitions.
  Change Logs: Check change logs or MRP run logs to see why the requisition was deleted and what conditions led to that decision.
  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is implemented in your SAP system, check for any user exits or BAdIs that might affect MRP behavior.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the ME683 error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
