How To Fix PLM_FMEA_APPL610 - &1 (&2) in &3: No actual probability of occurrence exists

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PLM_FMEA_APPL - FMEA - Message

• Message number: 610

• Message text: &1 (&2) in &3: No actual probability of occurrence exists

What causes this issue?

No actual value for the probability of occurrence could be determined
for the list item &V1& (&V2&) in &V3&. No confirmed preventive actions
exist and no valuation was entered at the list item level.

System Response

If a risk matrix is defined and it contains an axis definition for the
valuation category <ZK>probability of occurrence</>, list items with an
initial actual value for the probability of occurrence in the actual
analysis are not taken into account in the risk matrix.

How to fix this error?

Enter a valuation for the list item &V1& by either setting the
respective indicator directly at the level of the list item or by
creating and confirming preventive actions.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL610 - &1 (&2) in &3: No actual probability of occurrence exists ?

  The SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL610 typically occurs in the context of Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) within the SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) module. This error indicates that there is no actual probability of occurrence defined for a specific failure mode in the FMEA process.
  Cause:
  The error message "No actual probability of occurrence exists" suggests that the system is trying to access or calculate the probability of occurrence for a failure mode, but the required data is missing. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Missing Data: The probability of occurrence has not been defined for the failure mode in question.
  Incorrect Configuration: The FMEA configuration may not be set up correctly, leading to missing links between failure modes and their associated probabilities.
  Data Entry Errors: There may have been an oversight during data entry, where the probability of occurrence was not filled in.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check FMEA Data:
  
  Navigate to the FMEA document in question and verify that the probability of occurrence is defined for the relevant failure modes.
  Ensure that the values are correctly entered and saved.
  
  
  
  Update Probability of Occurrence:
  
  If the probability of occurrence is missing, you will need to enter the appropriate value. This is usually a numeric value that represents the likelihood of the failure mode occurring.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you suspect that the issue may be related to configuration, review the FMEA settings in the SAP system. Ensure that all necessary links and settings are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on how to enter or update the probability of occurrence in FMEA.
  
  
  
  User Authorization:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to the FMEA data. If not, contact your SAP administrator.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the FMEA process again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  FMEA Process: Understanding the FMEA process and its components (like severity, occurrence, and detection) is crucial for effective risk management in product development.
  SAP PLM Documentation: SAP provides extensive documentation and user guides for PLM and FMEA, which can be helpful in understanding how to manage and troubleshoot issues.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to reach out to SAP support or consult with a technical expert familiar with your specific SAP environment.
