• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SGT_01106 - Material &1 is statistical item; not relevant for requirement segment ?

  The SAP error message SGT_01106 indicates that the material in question is classified as a statistical item, which means it is not relevant for the requirement segment in the context of supply chain planning or inventory management. This typically occurs in scenarios involving materials that are not intended for direct consumption or are used for statistical purposes only.
  Cause:
  
  Material Classification: The material is set up in the system as a statistical item. This means it is not intended to be included in planning or requirement calculations.
  Configuration Settings: The material master data may have been configured incorrectly, leading to its classification as a statistical item.
  Planning Strategy: The planning strategy assigned to the material may not support the generation of requirements.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and check the material type and settings.
  Ensure that the material is not set as a statistical item if it should be relevant for planning.
  
  
  
  Change Material Type:
  
  If the material should be relevant for requirements, consider changing its material type to one that supports planning (e.g., finished goods, raw materials).
  This may require coordination with your SAP configuration team.
  
  
  
  Review Planning Strategy:
  
  Check the planning strategy assigned to the material. If it is set to a strategy that does not generate requirements, you may need to change it to a more appropriate strategy.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidelines on handling statistical items and their implications in your planning processes.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the material behaves as expected in the planning process.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Material Types: Understand the different material types in SAP and their implications for planning and inventory management.
  Planning Strategies: Familiarize yourself with various planning strategies in SAP (e.g., Make-to-Stock, Make-to-Order) and how they affect material requirements.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional insights or solutions related to this error message.
