• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLMDISCALC000 - For &1 materials/classes the low-level code is inconsistent ?

  The SAP error message PLMDISCALC000 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the low-level code for certain materials or classes in the system. This error typically arises in the context of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or when dealing with material master data.
  Cause:
  The low-level code is a hierarchical representation of the materials and their dependencies. An inconsistency can occur due to several reasons, including:
  
  Changes in Material Structure: If the structure of a material has been changed (e.g., components added or removed) without properly updating the low-level code, inconsistencies can arise.
  Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system or if there have been bulk changes made to material data, it may lead to inconsistencies.
  Manual Errors: Manual updates or incorrect entries in the material master data can lead to discrepancies in the low-level code.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the system related to material management or product structure can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the PLMDISCALC000 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Material Structure: Review the materials/classes mentioned in the error message. Ensure that their structure is correctly defined and that all components are properly linked.
  
  
  Recalculate Low-Level Code: You can use the transaction code CS02 (Change Material) or CS03 (Display Material) to check the material's BOM (Bill of Materials) and recalculate the low-level code. You may also use the transaction CS11 to display the low-level code for a material.
  
  
  Use Report Program: SAP provides standard report programs that can help in recalculating the low-level codes. You can run the report RPLM_DIS_CALC to recalculate the low-level codes for the affected materials.
  
  
  Check for Inconsistencies: Use transaction MM03 to display the material master data and check for any inconsistencies or missing data.
