  The SAP error message PPH_MRP221 indicates that the Integrated Product and Process Engineering (IPPE) or Product Variant Configuration (PVS) explosion is not supported in MRP Live on HANA. This error typically arises when trying to run a Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process that involves complex product structures or variant configurations that MRP Live cannot handle.
  
  Cause:
  
  Complex Product Structures: The error often occurs when the product structure is too complex for MRP Live to process, particularly when using IPPE or PVS.
  Configuration Settings: The system may not be configured to handle certain types of product variants or engineering data.
  MRP Live Limitations: MRP Live has certain limitations regarding the types of data and structures it can process, especially when it comes to advanced planning scenarios.
  
  
  Solution:
