• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PMRP_TRANSFER028 - Retail replenishment materials &1 &2 &3 are excluded from pMRP ?

  The SAP error message PMRP_TRANSFER028 indicates that certain retail replenishment materials are excluded from the pMRP (Planning for Material Requirements Planning) process. This message typically arises in the context of the Retail industry solution within SAP, particularly when dealing with the planning and replenishment of materials.
  Cause:
  The exclusion of materials from pMRP can occur due to several reasons, including:
  
  Material Status: The materials may have a status that prevents them from being included in the planning process (e.g., blocked, inactive).
  Planning Parameters: The planning parameters for the materials may not be set correctly, such as the planning type or the MRP type.
  Stock Levels: If the stock levels are above the reorder point, the system may exclude them from the planning process.
  Master Data Issues: Incomplete or incorrect master data for the materials, such as missing purchasing info records or incorrect material types.
  Exclusion Flags: Specific flags or settings in the material master that indicate the material should not be included in pMRP.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the PMRP_TRANSFER028 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  Check Material Status: Verify the status of the materials in question. Ensure they are active and not blocked for planning.
  Review Planning Parameters: Check the planning parameters in the material master (MRP type, planning type, etc.) to ensure they are set correctly.
  Analyze Stock Levels: Look at the current stock levels and ensure they are within the acceptable range for planning. If stock is above the reorder point, consider adjusting the parameters.
  Validate Master Data: Ensure that all necessary master data is complete and accurate. This includes checking purchasing info records, material types, and other relevant data.
  Check Exclusion Flags: Review the material master for any flags that may indicate exclusion from planning. Adjust these settings if necessary.
  Run pMRP Again: After making the necessary adjustments, rerun the pMRP process to see if the materials are now included.
