PK153 - Details

• The SAP error message PK153 indicates that a Kanban container cannot be set to the "WAIT" status from its current status. This typically occurs in the context of the Kanban process within SAP's Production Planning (PP) module, where Kanban is used for managing inventory and production processes.
  
  Cause:
  The error message PK153 can be triggered by several factors, including:
  
  
  Current Status of the Kanban Container: The Kanban container may be in a status that does not allow it to transition to "WAIT." For example, if the container is already in a status like "FULL" or "EMPTY," it may not be allowed to switch to "WAIT."
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the Kanban control cycle that restrict the status changes based on certain conditions.
  
  
  User Authorizations: The user attempting to change the status may not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action.
  
  
  System Errors: There could be underlying system issues or bugs that
