• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MILL_OC087 - QM-relevant operations are not combined ?

  The SAP error message MILL_OC087, which states "QM-relevant operations are not combined," typically occurs in the context of production planning and quality management within the SAP system. This error indicates that there are operations in a production order or process that are marked as relevant for Quality Management (QM), but they cannot be combined with other operations due to certain constraints.
  Causes:
  
  QM Relevance: The operations involved may have different QM settings or statuses that prevent them from being combined. For example, if one operation is set to require a quality inspection and another is not, SAP will not allow them to be combined.
  Operation Types: Different operation types may have different requirements or characteristics that make them incompatible for combination.
  Routing Issues: The routing defined for the production order may have inconsistencies or conflicts that lead to this error.
  Master Data Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of master data, such as the material master or work center settings, that affect how operations are treated in relation to QM.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Review Operations: Check the operations in the production order or process. Ensure that all operations that need to be combined have the same QM relevance settings.
  Adjust Routing: If the routing is causing the issue, consider adjusting it to ensure that operations can be combined appropriately.
  Check Master Data: Review the master data for the materials and work centers involved. Ensure that the QM settings are consistent and correctly configured.
  Separate Operations: If combining operations is not feasible due to inherent differences, consider processing them as separate operations instead.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on QM settings and operation combinations.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to production orders (e.g., CO02 for changing production orders) and QM (e.g., QA32 for quality inspection).
  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is involved, review any user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) that may affect how operations are processed in relation to QM.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in production planning and quality management.
