• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MM077 - Deletion flag is set for the valuation type ?

  The SAP error message MM077 ("Deletion flag is set for the valuation type") typically occurs in the Materials Management (MM) module when you attempt to perform an operation (like posting a goods movement or creating a purchase order) on a material that has a deletion flag set for its valuation type. This means that the system has marked the valuation type as inactive or deleted, preventing any further transactions from being processed for that valuation type.
  
  Cause:
  
  Deletion Flag Set: The valuation type for the material has been marked with a deletion flag in the system. This can happen if the material is no longer needed or if it has been replaced by another material.
  Material Master Data: The material master data may have been incorrectly maintained, leading to the deletion flag being set unintentionally.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that have led to the valuation type being flagged
