• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPU702 - Delivery time was re-set to ônowö since requirement date is in the past ?

  The SAP error message RMPU702 indicates that the delivery time for a particular requirement has been reset to "now" because the requirement date is in the past. This typically occurs in the context of production planning, material requirements planning (MRP), or sales order processing when the system detects that the requested delivery date cannot be met due to it being in the past.
  Cause:
  
  Past Requirement Date: The primary cause of this error is that the requirement date for the delivery is set to a date that has already passed. This can happen due to delays in processing, changes in scheduling, or incorrect data entry.
  System Settings: The system may be configured to automatically adjust delivery dates when they are in the past, which can lead to this message being triggered.
  Material Availability: If the material is not available for the requested date, the system may default to the current date as the only feasible delivery date.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Requirement Date: Review the requirement date in the relevant document (e.g., sales order, production order) and ensure it is set to a future date. If it is incorrect, update it to a valid future date.
  Adjust Planning Parameters: If the requirement date is correct but the system is still generating this error, check the planning parameters and settings in the MRP or production planning configuration. Ensure that the settings allow for appropriate lead times and delivery dates.
  Reprocess the Order: If the requirement date was changed, you may need to reprocess the order or run the MRP again to ensure that the system recalculates the delivery dates based on the updated information.
  Communicate with Stakeholders: If the requirement date cannot be changed (e.g., due to customer commitments), communicate with relevant stakeholders to manage expectations and possibly negotiate new delivery dates.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) or CO09 (Availability Overview) to analyze the situation further.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional insights or updates related to this error message.
  User Exits or Enhancements: If this behavior is not desired, consider discussing with your SAP technical team about possible user exits or enhancements that could modify how the system handles past requirement dates.
  
  By addressing the root cause of the error and ensuring that requirement dates are set correctly, you can prevent this error from occurring in the future.
