  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data for the material, plant, or task list type.

  Solution:

  Check Task List Assignment:
  
  Go to the transaction code CA03 (Display Routing) or C202 (Display Task List) and check if the task list for the specified material, plant, and task list type exists.
  If it does not exist, you will need to create a new task list for the material.

  Ensure that the relevant views (e.g., MRP, Work Scheduling) are maintained.
