• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PPC1DM016 - Non-valuated make-to-order production is not supported ?

  The SAP error message PPC1DM016, which states "Non-valuated make-to-order production is not supported," typically occurs in the context of production planning and execution within the SAP system, particularly when dealing with make-to-order (MTO) production scenarios.
  Cause:
  This error generally arises due to the following reasons:
  
  
  Non-Valuated Stock: The system is trying to process a make-to-order production order that is not associated with valuated stock. In SAP, make-to-order production typically requires that stock is valuated, meaning that it has a monetary value assigned to it.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the material master or production settings that do not support non-valuated stock for make-to-order production.
  
  
  Material Type Settings: The material type assigned to the product may not be configured to allow for make-to-order production.
  
  
  Order Type Settings: The order type used for the production order may not be set up to handle non-valuated stock.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Go to the material master record for the affected material and ensure that it is set up for valuated stock. You can check this in the Accounting view of the material master.
  
  
  
  Review Production Order Type:
  
  Check the configuration of the production order type being used. Ensure that it is configured to allow for make-to-order production and that it supports valuated stock.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If necessary, adjust the configuration settings in the SAP system. This may involve working with your SAP configuration team to ensure that the relevant settings for material types and order types are correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Use Valuated Stock:
  
  If the business process allows, consider using valuated stock for the production order. This may involve changing the way materials are managed in your production process.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with SAP support for specific guidance related to your version of SAP and the specific configuration of your system.
