  The SAP error message MPN10011 typically occurs in the context of Material Management (MM) or Production Planning (PP) when you are trying to perform an action that is not allowed for statistical (non-valuated) main items. This error indicates that the function you are trying to execute can only be displayed and not modified or processed further.
  Cause:
  The error message MPN10011 is triggered when:
  
  You are attempting to perform a transaction or action (like changing or posting) on a statistical main item.
  Statistical main items are used for reporting and analysis purposes but do not have a financial impact, meaning they are not valuated in the same way as standard inventory items.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Item Type: Verify if the item you are trying to process is indeed a statistical main item. You can do this by checking the material master data or the relevant transaction.
  
  
  Use Display Mode: If you only need to view the information, switch to display mode instead of trying to edit or post changes.
  
  
  Review Business Process: If you need to perform actions that are not allowed on statistical items, you may need to review your business process. Consider whether you should be using a different type of item that allows for the required transactions.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more information on how to handle statistical main items and the limitations associated with them.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you believe that the error is occurring inappropriately or if you need further assistance, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP directly.
