• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MMRP01227 - Order BOM is not available as it has not yet been exploded (start RPM) ?

  The SAP error message MMRP01227 indicates that the Bill of Materials (BOM) for a production order is not available because it has not yet been exploded. This typically occurs in the context of production planning and execution, where the system needs to access the detailed components of a BOM to proceed with production activities.
  Cause:
  
  BOM Not Exploded: The primary cause of this error is that the BOM for the production order has not been exploded. This means that the system has not yet generated the detailed list of components required for the production order.
  Order Status: The production order may be in a status that does not allow for BOM explosion, such as being in a "created" or "released" status without having gone through the necessary steps to explode the BOM.
  Missing BOM: There may be no BOM defined for the material in question, or the BOM may not be valid for the specific order.
  Configuration Issues: There could be configuration issues in the system that prevent the BOM from being exploded correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Explode the BOM: You can manually explode the BOM for the production order. This can typically be done through transaction codes such as:
  
  CO01: Create Production Order
  CO02: Change Production Order
  CO03: Display Production Order
  In these transactions, you can check the BOM explosion status and trigger the explosion if necessary.
  
  
  
  Check Order Status: Ensure that the production order is in a status that allows for BOM explosion. If it is not, you may need to change the status of the order.
  
  
  Verify BOM Existence: Check if a valid BOM exists for the material in question. You can do this using transaction code CS03 (Display BOM) to see if the BOM is correctly defined and active.
  
  
  Check BOM Validity: Ensure that the BOM is valid for the specific plant and production version associated with the production order.
  
  
  Run MRP: If the BOM is not exploded due to MRP (Material Requirements Planning) not being run, you may need to execute MRP to ensure that all necessary components are planned and the BOM is exploded.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, consult SAP documentation or your internal SAP support team for further troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CS01 (Create BOM), CS02 (Change BOM), CS03 (Display BOM), CO01 (Create Production Order), CO02 (Change Production Order), and CO03 (Display Production Order).
  BOM Configuration: Review the configuration settings for BOMs in your SAP system to ensure they are set up correctly.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the MMRP01227 error and successfully explode the BOM for your production order.
