  The SAP error message PDTC022 indicates that there is an issue with the planned delivery time for a material. Specifically, it states that the planned delivery time cannot be changed to zero. This error typically arises in the context of material master data or procurement settings.
  Cause:
  
  Planned Delivery Time Set to Zero: The planned delivery time for a material is set to zero, which is not allowed. This value is essential for determining lead times in procurement processes.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the material master or purchasing info records that do not allow a planned delivery time of zero.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record for the affected material (transaction code MM03).

  Ensure that the planned delivery time is set to a positive value (greater than zero).

  Review Purchasing Info Records:
  
  If applicable, check the purchasing info records (transaction code ME13) for the material and vendor combination to ensure that the planned delivery time is also set correctly there.
  
  
  
  Consult Configuration Settings:
