• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MMPUR_REQ_IA_PRSL027 - Approved PRs with Same Storage Location ?

  The SAP error message MMPUR_REQ_IA_PRSL027 indicates that there are approved Purchase Requisitions (PRs) that share the same storage location. This error typically arises in the context of materials management and procurement processes within SAP, particularly when trying to create or process purchase orders based on these requisitions.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  Multiple approved Purchase Requisitions exist for the same material and storage location.
  The system does not allow the creation of a single Purchase Order (PO) for multiple PRs that have the same storage location, as it may lead to confusion or errors in inventory management.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Approved Purchase Requisitions:
  
  Go to the transaction code ME5A (List of Purchase Requisitions) or ME53N (Display Purchase Requisition) to review the approved PRs.
  Identify the PRs that are causing the conflict (i.e., those with the same material and storage location).
  
  
  
  Consolidate Purchase Requisitions:
  
  If possible, consolidate the PRs into a single PR. This can be done by creating a new PR that includes all the required items and then deleting or unapproving the redundant PRs.
  
  
  
  Create Separate Purchase Orders:
  
  If consolidation is not feasible, create separate Purchase Orders for each Purchase Requisition. Ensure that each PO corresponds to its respective PR.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration Settings:
  
  Review the configuration settings in the SAP system related to procurement and purchase requisition processing. Ensure that the settings align with your organization's procurement policies.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Support Team:
  
  If the issue persists or if you need further assistance, consult with your SAP support team or functional consultant. They can provide insights based on your specific SAP configuration and business processes.
