• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_APP036 - Unsaved routing data exist ?

  The SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_APP036 Unsaved routing data exist typically occurs in the context of the SAP Production Planning (PP) module, particularly when working with routing data in the Logistics area. This error indicates that there are unsaved changes in the routing data that need to be addressed before proceeding with other actions.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when a user attempts to perform an action (like saving, exiting, or navigating away) while there are unsaved changes in the routing data. This can happen if:
  
  You have made changes to routing information (like operations, sequences, or times) but have not saved those changes.
  You are trying to exit the routing transaction without saving the modifications.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should follow these steps:
  
  
  Save Changes: If you have made changes to the routing data, ensure that you save them. Look for a "Save" button or use the keyboard shortcut (usually Ctrl + S) to save your changes.
  
  
  Discard Changes: If you do not want to keep the changes you made, you can choose to discard them. This is typically done by navigating back or using the "Cancel" option, which should prompt you to confirm that you want to discard unsaved changes.
  
  
  Check for Locks: If you are unable to save due to locks or other issues, check if another user is editing the same routing data. You may need to wait until they finish or coordinate with them.
  
  
  Review Data: Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly and that there are no validation errors that might prevent saving.
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes: If you are in a specific transaction (like CA01 for creating routing), ensure you are following the correct steps for that transaction.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CA01 (Create Routing), CA02 (Change Routing), and CA03 (Display Routing).
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to save changes in routing data.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
