• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MG229 - Trans. &: & view skipped since org. levels missing ?

  The SAP error message MG229 indicates that a particular view in the Material Master or other related data is being skipped because the organizational levels required for that view are missing. This typically occurs during processes such as creating or changing material master records, or when executing certain transactions that involve material data.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Organizational Levels: The organizational levels (such as Plant, Storage Location, or Sales Organization) required for the specific view are not maintained in the system.
  View Configuration: The view you are trying to access or modify is not configured for the organizational level you are working with.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data that prevent the system from accessing the required organizational levels.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the MG229 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Organizational Levels:
