• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OQ_I214 - No completion strategy determined for reversal program ?

  The SAP error message OQ_I214, which states "No completion strategy determined for reversal program," typically occurs in the context of inventory management or production planning when the system is unable to determine a completion strategy for a reversal operation. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to reverse a goods movement or a production order.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing Configuration: The completion strategy for the reversal program may not be configured in the system. This can happen if the necessary settings in the configuration for inventory management or production planning are incomplete or incorrect.
  
  
  Incorrect Movement Type: The movement type used for the reversal may not be set up correctly in the system, leading to the inability to determine a completion strategy.
  
  
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data related to the materials, such as missing or incorrect settings in the material master or the related BOM (Bill of Materials).
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the reversal, which can lead to this error.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Configuration: 
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP (Transaction SPRO) and ensure that the completion strategies for the relevant movement types are correctly defined.
  Specifically, check the settings under Inventory Management or Production Planning to ensure that the reversal program is properly configured.
  
  
  
  Review Movement Types: 
  
  Verify that the movement type you are using for the reversal is correctly defined in the system. You can check this in the movement type configuration (Transaction OMJJ).

  Validate Master Data: 
  
  Check the material master data for the relevant materials to ensure that all necessary fields are filled out correctly.
