  The SAP error message MPE_PLAN_RTG_VERS109 indicates that you are trying to set a routing version to obsolete, but the system requires you to select one specific routing version to perform this action. This error typically occurs in the context of production planning and routing management within SAP.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You have multiple routing versions available for a particular routing, and the system cannot determine which one you want to set to obsolete.
  The user interface or transaction you are using does not specify a single routing version, leading to ambiguity.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Routing Versions: Check the existing routing versions for the material in question. You can do this by navigating to the routing transaction (e.g., CA03 - Display Routing) and entering the material number.
  
  
  Select a Specific Version: When you attempt to set a routing version to obsolete, ensure that you explicitly select one routing version. This may involve:
  
  Using the appropriate transaction code (e.g., CA02 - Change Routing) to access the routing version you want to set to obsolete.
  In the transaction where you are trying to set the version to obsolete, ensure you are selecting the correct version from a list or dropdown.
  
  
  
  Set to Obsolete: Once you have selected the specific routing version, proceed to set it to obsolete. This is typically done through a specific function or button in the routing management transaction.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to routing versions. Lack of proper permissions can sometimes lead to unexpected errors.
  
  
  Related Information:
