• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OIURV099 - Material & is not valid for Factor NGLPC. Must have Major product of 4. ?

  The SAP error message OIURV099 indicates that there is an issue with the material specified in the context of a particular factor (in this case, NGLPC) and that it must have a major product of 4. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Oil and Gas or Product Costing modules, where specific configurations and validations are required for materials and their associated factors.
  Cause:
  
  Material Configuration: The material you are trying to use is not configured correctly for the specified factor (NGLPC). This could mean that the material is not set up to be associated with that factor or that it does not meet the necessary criteria.
  Major Product Requirement: The error specifically states that the material must have a major product of 4. This means that the material is expected to be linked to a major product classification that is not currently assigned.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data or configuration settings related to the material, factor, or major product.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data: 
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and verify the settings for the material in question. Ensure that it is correctly classified and that it has the necessary attributes for the factor NGLPC.
  Specifically, check the "Basic Data" and "Classification" views to ensure that the major product is set to 4.
  
  
  
  Review Factor Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration for the factor NGLPC in the relevant customizing settings (transaction code SPRO). Ensure that the factor is correctly defined and that it is linked to the appropriate major products.
  
  
  
  Assign Major Product:
  
  If the material does not have a major product assigned, you may need to assign it. This can typically be done in the material master under the relevant views or through the classification system.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review any relevant SAP documentation or notes related to the error message OIURV099. There may be specific guidelines or additional steps required for your particular SAP version or industry solution.
  
  
  
  Testing:
