• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SE435 - Work entered & exceeds work & in operation ?

  The SAP error message SE435 ("Work entered & exceeds work & in operation") typically occurs in the context of production planning and execution, particularly when dealing with operations in a production order or a routing. This error indicates that the amount of work (e.g., labor hours, machine hours) that has been entered for a specific operation exceeds the total work that is defined for that operation in the routing or production order.
  Causes:
  
  Data Entry Error: The most common cause is that the user has mistakenly entered a higher amount of work than what is defined in the operation.
  Routing Changes: If the routing has been changed after the production order was created, the new work values may not be reflected in the order.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an issue with how the work is configured in the routing or production order.
  Partial Confirmations: If there are partial confirmations that have not been properly accounted for, it may lead to discrepancies in the total work.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify Work Entries: Check the work entries made for the operation and ensure they do not exceed the defined work in the routing or production order.
  Review Routing: Look at the routing for the operation to confirm the expected work values. If the routing has changed, consider updating the production order or re-creating it.
  Adjust Confirmations: If there are partial confirmations, ensure they are correctly recorded and that the total work does not exceed the defined limits.
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or guidelines for entering work in the system to ensure compliance with best practices.
  System Configuration: If the issue persists, it may be necessary to consult with a system administrator or SAP support to check for any configuration issues in the system.
