  Cause:

  The material has not been received or produced yet.
  The material has been completely sold or consumed.
  The material is not maintained in the plant's master data.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the key figures or planning levels in the system.
  
  
  Data Issues: There could be issues with the data in the system, such as missing or incorrect entries in the material master or planning data.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Stock: Verify the stock levels for the material in the specified plant using transaction codes like MMBE (Stock Overview) or MB52 (List Warehouse Stocks on Hand). If the stock is indeed zero, you may need to procure or produce the material.

  Review Time Period: Ensure that you are looking at the correct time period for the key figure. If the data is not available for the selected period, you may need to adjust your selection criteria.
