  The SAP error message PMRP_TRANSFER023 indicates that a configurable material cannot be considered for the planning run in the context of the planning strategy used in the system. This error typically arises in the context of Production Planning and Material Requirements Planning (MRP) when dealing with configurable materials.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Issues: The configurable material may not be properly configured in the system. This could include missing or incorrect configuration settings in the material master or the configuration profile.
  Planning Strategy: The planning strategy assigned to the configurable material may not support MRP. For example, certain planning strategies may not allow for the planning of configurable materials.
  Missing Dependencies: If the configurable material has dependencies that are not met or are incorrectly defined, it may not be considered for planning.
  Status of the Material: The material may be in a status that prevents it from being included in the planning run (e.g., blocked, discontinued).
  MRP Type: The MRP type assigned to the material may not be appropriate for configurable materials.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Material Configuration: Review the configuration settings of the material in the material master. Ensure that all necessary fields are filled out correctly, including the configuration profile.
  Review Planning Strategy: Check the planning strategy assigned to the material. If it is not suitable for configurable materials, consider changing it to a strategy that supports MRP for configurable items.
  Verify Dependencies: Ensure that all dependencies for the configurable material are correctly defined and that there are no missing components or settings.
  Material Status: Check the status of the material in the system. If it is blocked or discontinued, you may need to change its status to allow it to be included in planning.
