  The SAP error message MPD017 ("No suitable records were found") typically occurs in the context of Material Requirements Planning (MRP) or when trying to access certain data records in SAP that are expected to be available but are not found. This error can arise in various scenarios, such as during the planning run, when trying to create or display a production order, or when accessing certain reports.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Master Data: The required master data (like material master, BOM, routing, etc.) may not be set up correctly or may be missing.

  Solutions:
  
  Check Master Data: Ensure that all relevant master data (material master, BOM, routing) is correctly set up and exists in the system.
  Review Selection Criteria: Re-evaluate the selection criteria you are using. Try broadening the criteria to see if records can be found.

  Check for Deletion/Archiving: Verify if the records have been deleted or archived. If they have been archived, you may need to restore them or check the archive.
