RM794 - Details

• The SAP error message RM794, which states "Switched to 'Propose all operations'," typically occurs in the context of production planning and scheduling within the SAP system. This message indicates that the system has switched to a mode where it proposes all operations for a production order or process, rather than just the operations that were initially planned or scheduled.
  
  Cause:
  The error can be triggered by several factors, including:
  
  Missing or Incomplete Data: If the system cannot find the necessary data to schedule specific operations, it may default to proposing all operations.
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect settings in the production planning configuration can lead to this message being displayed.
  Capacity Constraints: If there are capacity constraints that prevent the scheduling of specific operations, the system may revert to proposing all operations.
  Order Status: The status of the production order may not allow for specific operations to be scheduled, leading to this fallback.
