• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MSI_ECC009 - Synchronization terminated as material type &1 has not been synchronized ?

  The SAP error message MSI_ECC009 indicates that synchronization has been terminated because a specific material type (denoted by &1) has not been synchronized. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Synchronization, particularly when dealing with materials in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Material Type Not Configured for Synchronization: The material type in question may not be configured to be synchronized between the systems (e.g., between SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA or other connected systems).
  Missing Master Data: The material type may not have been created or may be missing in the source system, leading to synchronization issues.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing the synchronization of certain material types.
  Configuration Errors: There could be errors in the configuration settings for the synchronization process, such as incorrect settings in the middleware or data transfer settings.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for material types in the SAP system.
  Ensure that the material type in question is set up for synchronization. This can typically be found in the IMG (Implementation Guide) under the relevant section for material management or data synchronization.
  
  
  
  Verify Master Data:
  
  Check if the material type exists in the source system and has been properly created.
  Ensure that all required fields and attributes for the material type are filled out correctly.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Settings:
  
  Ensure that the user or service account performing the synchronization has the necessary authorizations to access and synchronize the material type.
  
  
  
  Check Middleware Configuration:
  
  If you are using middleware (like SAP PI/PO or SAP Cloud Platform Integration), check the configuration settings to ensure that the material type is included in the synchronization process.
  Look for any error logs or messages in the middleware that might provide additional context.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Search for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide guidance on troubleshooting synchronization issues.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform a test synchronization to see if the issue is resolved.
