• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MSI_ECC023 - Synchronization terminated due to problems with new PIR number ?

  The SAP error message MSI_ECC023, which indicates that synchronization has been terminated due to problems with a new Purchase Info Record (PIR) number, typically arises in the context of SAP's Material Management (MM) module, particularly when dealing with the integration between SAP ECC (ERP Central Component) and other systems, such as SAP S/4HANA or third-party applications.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid PIR Number: The PIR number being synchronized may not exist in the system or may have been deleted or archived.
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the data related to the PIR, such as missing mandatory fields or incorrect data formats.
  Authorization Issues: The user or system trying to perform the synchronization may not have the necessary authorizations to access or modify the PIR.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent the proper synchronization of PIR data.
  Network or Connectivity Issues: If the synchronization involves multiple systems, network issues could lead to incomplete or failed data transfers.
  
  Solution:
  
  Verify PIR Existence: Check if the PIR number exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., ME13) to view the PIR.
  Check Data Completeness: Ensure that all required fields in the PIR are filled out correctly and that there are no inconsistencies in the data.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user or system performing the synchronization has the necessary authorizations to access and modify the PIR.
  Check Configuration Settings: Review the configuration settings related to PIR synchronization in both the ECC and any connected systems to ensure they are set up correctly.
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that can provide additional context on the issue.
  Re-attempt Synchronization: After addressing the identified issues, re-attempt the synchronization process to see if the error persists.
