• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SGT_01075 - Batch management is mandatory when scope of segmentation strategy is 1 ?

  The SAP error message SGT_01075 indicates that batch management is required when the scope of the segmentation strategy is set to 1. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or similar modules where segmentation strategies are used to manage product variants, batches, or other characteristics.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the segmentation strategy you are trying to implement has been defined in such a way that it requires batch management, but the relevant settings or configurations are not in place. Specifically, when the scope of the segmentation strategy is set to 1, it implies that batch management is mandatory for the products involved.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Segmentation Strategy Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the segmentation strategy in your SAP system.
  Verify the settings for the segmentation strategy and ensure that it is correctly configured to handle batch management.
  
  
  
  Enable Batch Management:
  
  If batch management is indeed required, ensure that it is enabled for the relevant materials or products. You can do this by:
  
  Navigating to the material master data (transaction code MM02).
  Checking the "Plant Data / Storage" view and ensuring that the "Batch Management" checkbox is selected.
  
  
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Ensure that the materials involved in the segmentation strategy are set up correctly for batch management. This includes checking the material type and ensuring that it supports batch management.
  
  
  
  Adjust Segmentation Strategy Scope:
  
  If batch management is not required for your business process, consider adjusting the scope of the segmentation strategy to a value other than 1, if that aligns with your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to segmentation strategies and batch management for additional insights and best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the segmentation strategy works as intended.
