• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PPEACT115 - There can only be one activity with a scrap value under &1 &2 ?

  The SAP error message PPEACT115 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of activities in a production planning or project system context. Specifically, it states that there can only be one activity with a scrap value under the specified parameters (typically referring to a particular work center or production order).

  The error occurs when you attempt to assign multiple activities to a production order or project that have a scrap value defined.

  Decide which activity should retain the scrap value.
  Remove the scrap value from the other activities.
  
  
  
  Adjust Activity Configuration: If necessary, adjust the configuration of the activities in the relevant master data (like work center or routing) to ensure that only one activity has a scrap value.
  
  
  Recheck the Order: After making the changes, recheck the production order or project to ensure that the error no longer appears.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about which activity should retain the scrap value, consult your project documentation or speak with a production planner or project manager.
