• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MPE_VERSBOM010 - Effectivity values are missing ?

  The SAP error message MPE_VERSBOM010 indicates that effectivity values are missing for a Bill of Materials (BOM) in the system. This error typically arises when the system is trying to process a BOM that requires specific effectivity dates or conditions, but those values have not been defined.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Effectivity Data: The BOM may not have been assigned any effectivity values, which are necessary for the system to determine when the BOM is valid.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the BOM or the material may not be set up correctly, leading to missing effectivity information.
  Data Entry Errors: There may have been an oversight during data entry, where effectivity values were not filled in or were incorrectly entered.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check BOM Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the BOM in question and check if effectivity values (like start and end dates) are defined.
  If they are missing, you will need to enter the appropriate effectivity values.
  
  
  
  Update Effectivity Values:
  
  Go to the BOM transaction (e.g., CS02 for changing BOM) and ensure that the effectivity dates are correctly set.
  Make sure that the effectivity values align with the production or planning requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Check the material master data to ensure that it is correctly configured to use effectivity values.
  Ensure that the material type and other relevant settings support effectivity.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to BOM and effectivity to ensure that you are following the correct procedures.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the BOM processing again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
