SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: O3 - IS-Oil: HPM messages (goods movements, QCI, deliveries)

• Message number: 155

• Message text: Air buoyancy factor not maintained in MARC for material &, plant &

What causes this issue?

An air bouyancy factor has not been maintained for the material and
plant combination, and the air bouyancy indicator has been activated
using the HPM/API defaults in Table OIB03.

How to fix this error?

Either maintain an air bouyancy factor in the material master or
turn off the air bouyancy indicator in the default record in Table
OIB03.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message O3155 - Air buoyancy factor not maintained in MARC for material &, plant & ?

  The SAP error message O3155 indicates that the air buoyancy factor has not been maintained for a specific material and plant combination in the MARC (Plant Data for Material) table. This factor is important for certain calculations, particularly in the context of materials management and logistics, where the weight of materials may need to be adjusted for air buoyancy in specific scenarios.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  The air buoyancy factor is not defined for the material in the specified plant.
  The material master data is incomplete or not properly maintained.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to maintain the air buoyancy factor for the affected material and plant combination. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Material Master:
  
  Go to transaction code MM02 (Change Material) in SAP.
  
  
  
  Enter Material and Plant:
  
  Input the material number and the plant code where the error occurred.
  
  
  
  Select the Appropriate View:
  
  Choose the "Plant Data" view (MARC) or any other relevant view that contains the air buoyancy factor.
  
  
  
  Maintain the Air Buoyancy Factor:
  
  Look for the field related to the air buoyancy factor (often labeled as "Air Buoyancy Factor" or similar).
  Enter the appropriate value for the air buoyancy factor. This value is typically a decimal number that represents the adjustment for air buoyancy.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After entering the value, save your changes.
  
  
  
  Re-test the Process:
  
  After maintaining the air buoyancy factor, re-run the process that triggered the error to ensure that it has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Material Master Data: The material master is a central repository of information about materials in SAP. It contains various views that hold data relevant to different aspects of material management.
  MARC Table: This table contains plant-specific data for materials, including information such as storage, procurement, and production data.
  Air Buoyancy Factor: This factor is used in calculations where the weight of a material needs to be adjusted for buoyancy effects, which can be relevant in logistics and shipping scenarios.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after maintaining the air buoyancy factor, it may be necessary to check for other related settings or consult with your SAP support team for further assistance.
