  The SAP error message PPECMP301, which indicates that a component is obsolete, typically arises in the context of the SAP Production Planning (PP) module. The specific message "obsolete: -> pper3e_cmpid 001" suggests that a particular component or item (identified by the component ID) is no longer valid for use in the current context, such as in a production order or bill of materials (BOM).
  Cause:
  
  Obsolete Component: The component referenced (in this case, pper3e_cmpid 001) has been marked as obsolete in the system. This could happen due to changes in product design, inventory management, or updates in the material master data.
