  Inadequate Planning Parameters: The parameters set for the planning run, such as lot sizes, safety stock levels, or lead times, may not be appropriate for the current planning scenario.
  Data Issues: Inaccurate or incomplete master data (e.g., material master, location data) can lead to unrealistic planning scenarios.
