• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCEM/ARCHIVIERUNG023 - & & &: SD document & exists for BOM ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCEM/ARCHIVIERUNG023 typically relates to issues with archiving in the context of SAP's Controlling (CO) or Production Planning (PP) modules, particularly when dealing with Bill of Materials (BOM) and Sales and Distribution (SD) documents. The error indicates that a specific SD document exists for a BOM, which is preventing the archiving process from completing successfully.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to archive a BOM that is still linked to an active SD document. This means that the system has detected that there are dependencies or references to the BOM in the SD module, which must be resolved before the BOM can be archived.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the SD Document: Use the error message details to identify the specific SD document that is causing the issue. You may need to check the document number mentioned in the error message.
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Investigate the relationship between the BOM and the SD document. This can involve checking sales orders, delivery documents, or any other SD-related documents that reference the BOM.
  
  
  Remove Dependencies: If possible, you may need to:
  
  Delete or modify the SD documents that are referencing the BOM.
  Change the status of the SD documents if they are no longer needed.
  Ensure that any sales orders or deliveries that use the BOM are completed or closed.
  
  
  
  Re-attempt Archiving: Once you have resolved the dependencies, you can attempt to archive the BOM again.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the steps or the implications of deleting/modifying SD documents, consult SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like CS03 (Display BOM) to view the BOM details and VA03 (Display Sales Order) to check the related SD documents.
  Archiving Objects: Familiarize yourself with the archiving objects related to BOM and SD documents in SAP. This can help you understand the archiving process better.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional insights or solutions related to this error message.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP Basis or functional team for further investigation, as they may have access to more detailed logs and system settings.
