  • Message text: New master data after confirmation was created (see long text)

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Confirmations have already been created for order &V1& and were
    subsequently cancelled. New master data, for example a different source
    of supply, was assigned to the order after the complete cancellation of
    all confirmations.
    As new master data now exists for the order, the confirmations now have
    to be created at reporting points which vary from those that were
    previously used for the creation of the confirmations.
    This is not supported at present. All confirmations for an order must be
    created using the same reporting point structure.

    System Response

    No confirmations could be created for the order and the master data
    assignment.

    How to fix this error?

    Check whether you can assign the original master data to the order
    again, for example by reactivating the original source of supply.
    If this is not possible or you do not want to do it, you can delete the
    order and create another one, and then create the confirmations for that
    .

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

  • The SAP error message PPC0500 typically indicates that new master data has been created after a confirmation was made in the Production Planning (PP) module.

Inconsistent Data: The system is unable to reconcile the changes made to the master data with the existing confirmations, leading to potential inconsistencies in production reporting and planning.
    Solution: Review Changes: Check the change logs for the master data to identify what changes were made after the confirmation. This can be done using transaction codes like MM03 for material master or CA03 for routing. Reconfirm Production Orders: If
