• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL109 - Only valuation profiles with codes may be used in the action ?

  The SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL109 indicates that there is an issue with the valuation profiles being used in the context of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) within the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) module. Specifically, the error suggests that only valuation profiles that have associated codes can be utilized in the action you are attempting to perform.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Codes: The valuation profiles you are trying to use do not have the necessary codes assigned to them. In FMEA, valuation profiles are used to assess the severity, occurrence, and detection of failure modes, and they must be properly configured with codes to be valid.
  Incorrect Configuration: The valuation profiles may not be set up correctly in the system, leading to the inability to use them in the action.
  Profile Restrictions: The specific action you are trying to perform may have restrictions on which valuation profiles can be used, and the ones you are attempting to use do not meet those criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Valuation Profiles:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for valuation profiles in SAP.
  Ensure that the profiles you are trying to use have the necessary codes assigned to them. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction codes (e.g., OPLM for PLM settings) and reviewing the profiles.
  
  
  
  Assign Codes:
  
  If the profiles are missing codes, you will need to assign the appropriate codes to them. This may involve defining new codes or linking existing ones to the profiles.
  
  
  
  Review Action Requirements:
  
  Check the requirements for the action you are trying to perform. Ensure that the valuation profiles you are using are compatible with the action and meet any specific criteria.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on configuring valuation profiles and understanding the requirements for FMEA actions.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the action again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as OPLM (for PLM settings) and others that may be used for managing FMEA and valuation profiles.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to FMEA and valuation profiles that may provide additional insights or fixes for known issues.
  User Roles and Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to modify valuation profiles and perform the actions in question.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP PLM for further assistance.
