  The SAP error message /SAPCE/IURU_MES110 indicates that there is an issue related to the purchasing of seals with a specific seal category. The message states that these seals can only be purchased through Materials Management (MM) transactions, which implies that the current transaction or method being used is not appropriate for purchasing these items.
  Cause:
  
  
  Incorrect Transaction Type: The error typically arises when trying to purchase seals using a transaction that is not aligned with the Materials Management module. This could happen if you are using a custom transaction or a different module that does not support the purchasing of seals.
