• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MPE_PLAN_EXEC030 - No BOM items found in the planning BOM ?

  The SAP error message MPE_PLAN_EXEC030: No BOM items found in the planning BOM typically occurs during the planning process when the system is unable to find any Bill of Materials (BOM) items associated with a specific material or product. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing BOM: The most common reason is that there is no BOM created for the material in question. If the material does not have an associated BOM, the system will not be able to find any items to plan.
  
  
  Incorrect BOM Status: The BOM might exist but could be inactive or not valid for the planning period. BOMs can have statuses that prevent them from being used in planning.
  
  
  Incorrect Material Type: The material type may not be set up to use BOMs. For example, some material types are not intended for production planning.
  
  
  Plant or Storage Location Issues: The BOM may be defined for a different plant or storage location than the one being used in the planning run.
  
  
  Versioning Issues: If the BOM is versioned, the version being referenced may not be the correct one or may not be valid.
  
  
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the master data that prevent the BOM from being recognized.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Create or Update BOM: Check if a BOM exists for the material. If not, create a BOM using transaction code CS01. If it exists, ensure it is correctly defined and active.
  
  
  Check BOM Status: Use transaction code CS03 to display the BOM and verify its status. Ensure that it is valid for the planning period and is not marked as inactive.
  
  
  Verify Material Type: Ensure that the material type is appropriate for BOM usage. You can check this in the material master data using transaction code MM03.
  
  
  Check Plant and Storage Location: Ensure that the BOM is created for the correct plant and storage location. You can check this in the BOM details.
  
  
  Review BOM Versions: If your organization uses BOM versions, ensure that the correct version is being referenced in the planning run.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on your master data to identify any discrepancies that may be causing the issue.
