• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RM133 - Planned order & only allowed for Kanban procedures ?

  The SAP error message RM133, which states "Planned order & only allowed for Kanban procedures," typically occurs when there is an attempt to create or process a planned order in a context where only Kanban procedures are allowed. This error is often related to the configuration of the production planning and control settings in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Settings: The system is configured to use Kanban for production control, and planned orders are not permitted in this scenario. This is common in environments where Just-In-Time (JIT) production is implemented.
  Order Type: The order type being used may not support planned orders, or it may be set up specifically for Kanban.
  Material Master Settings: The material master record may be configured to use Kanban instead of planned orders for production.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the Production Planning (PP) module to ensure that the settings align with your production strategy. If you need to use planned orders, you may need to adjust the configuration to allow for them.
  Use Kanban: If the process is intended to use Kanban, ensure that you are following the correct procedures for Kanban management. This may involve setting up Kanban containers, defining Kanban rules, and managing the Kanban process.
  Material Master Review: Check the material master record for the affected material. Ensure that the production type is set correctly. If the material is intended to be produced using planned orders, adjust the settings accordingly.
  Order Type Adjustment: If you need to create a planned order, consider using a different order type that allows for planned orders instead of Kanban.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on configuring production planning and the use of Kanban.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  MD01: MRP Run
  MD02: MRP Run for Single Material
  PK01: Create Kanban
  PK02: Change Kanban
  
  
  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is required, consider using user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to modify the behavior of order creation.
  Training and Support: If you are unsure about the configuration or processes, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or attending training sessions on SAP PP and Kanban.
  
  By addressing the configuration and understanding the intended use of Kanban versus planned orders, you can resolve the RM133 error effectively.
