• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMB/MC_PB_CHECK201 - Have normalized quantities been defined per material and UoM? ?

  The SAP error message /SCMB/MC_PB_CHECK201 typically indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of normalized quantities for materials in the context of Supply Chain Management (SCM) or Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO). This error suggests that the system is unable to find the normalized quantities defined for a specific material and unit of measure (UoM).
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Normalized Quantities: The most common cause of this error is that normalized quantities have not been defined for the material in question. Normalized quantities are essential for the system to perform calculations related to planning and inventory management.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an issue with the configuration settings in the system that prevents the normalized quantities from being recognized.
  
  
  Unit of Measure Issues: The unit of measure used for the material may not have corresponding normalized quantities defined, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Normalized Quantities:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction in SAP (usually in the SCM or APO module).
  Navigate to the area where you can define normalized quantities for materials.
  Ensure that normalized quantities are defined for the specific material and its unit of measure.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Review the material master data to ensure that all necessary information is correctly maintained.
  Check the UoM settings and ensure that they are consistent with the normalized quantities.
  
  
  
  Configuration Review:
  
  If you have access, review the configuration settings related to normalized quantities in the system.
  Ensure that the settings align with the business requirements and that all necessary parameters are correctly set.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on how to define normalized quantities and troubleshoot related issues.
  
  
  
  Contact SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance. They may provide insights specific to your system configuration.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM02 (Change Material), MM03 (Display Material), or specific SCM/APO transactions for managing normalized quantities.
  User Roles: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to material master data and configuration settings.
  Testing: After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the error is resolved and that the system behaves as expected.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the error message /SCMB/MC_PB_CHECK201 effectively.
