• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABR_PM_ERRORS184 - Product data error: reversal factor for Co. (&1), SIT(&2), St(&3) missing ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ABR_PM_ERRORS184 indicates that there is a product data error related to the reversal factor for a specific company code, storage location, and possibly a specific material or product. This error typically arises in the context of Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or Material Management (MM) when the system is trying to process product data but cannot find the necessary reversal factor.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Data: The reversal factor for the specified company code, storage location, and possibly material is not maintained in the system.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master or product master data that prevent the system from retrieving the necessary information.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system, the reversal factor might not have been transferred correctly.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the Material Master (transaction code MM03) and check if the reversal factor is maintained for the relevant material in the appropriate views (e.g., Accounting, Plant Data).
  If it is missing, you can maintain it using transaction code MM02.
  
  
  
  Maintain Reversal Factor:
  
  If the reversal factor is not set, you will need to enter the correct value. This is usually a numeric value that indicates how many units of the product are reversed in a specific transaction.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:

  You may need to consult with your SAP configuration team or refer to the SAP documentation for the specific settings.
