  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OD435 - Reorder point should be less than maximum inventory, minus the increment. ?

    The SAP error message OD435 indicates that there is an issue with the inventory management settings for a material in the system. Specifically, it means that the reorder point (the inventory level at which new stock should be ordered) is set higher than the maximum inventory level minus the increment. This can lead to potential issues in inventory management, as it may not be feasible to reorder stock at the specified levels.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Configuration: The reorder point has been set incorrectly in the material master data.
    2. Business Logic: The business logic may dictate that the reorder point should always be lower than the maximum inventory level minus the increment.
    3. Data Entry Error: There may have been a mistake during data entry when setting up the material master.

    Solution:

    To resolve the OD435 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to the material master record for the affected material (transaction code MM03).
      • Navigate to the "MRP" (Material Requirements Planning) view.
      • Verify the values for the reorder point and maximum inventory.
    2. Adjust Reorder Point:

      • If the reorder point is indeed higher than the maximum inventory minus the increment, adjust the reorder point to a value that is less than the maximum inventory minus the increment.
      • For example, if the maximum inventory is 100 and the increment is 10, the reorder point should be less than 90.
    3. Save Changes:

      • After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes to the material master.
    4. Test the Changes:

      • After saving, try to perform the action that triggered the error again to ensure that the issue has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Material Master Views: Familiarize yourself with the different views in the material master, especially the MRP view, as it contains critical information for inventory management.
    • Inventory Management Best Practices: Understanding best practices for setting reorder points and maximum inventory levels can help prevent similar issues in the future.
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on material master data and inventory management settings.
