• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /STTPEC/INT_TRN_MSG050 - Planned quantity for &1/&2 is set to 0 ?

  The SAP error message /STTPEC/INT_TRN_MSG050 Planned quantity for &1/&2 is set to 0 typically indicates that there is an issue with the planned quantity for a specific material or production order in the system. The placeholders &1 and &2 usually represent the material number and the plant or order number, respectively.
  Cause:
  
  
  Zero Planned Quantity: The most direct cause of this error is that the planned quantity for the specified material or order has been set to zero. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Manual entry errors during planning.
  Changes in demand or supply that lead to a planned quantity of zero.
  Deletion of planned orders or production orders.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the planning settings that lead to incorrect calculations of planned quantities.
  
  
  Master Data Issues: Problems with the material master data, such as missing or incorrect settings for the material, can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Planned Quantity: 
  
  Navigate to the relevant transaction (e.g., MD04 for stock/requirements list) and check the planned quantity for the specified material and plant/order.
  If the planned quantity is indeed zero and it should not be, you may need to adjust the planning parameters or re-enter the planned quantity.
  
  
  
  Review Planning Parameters: 
  
  Check the planning parameters in the material master (transaction MM03) to ensure they are set correctly.
  Review the MRP settings to ensure that they are configured to generate planned orders correctly.
  
  
  
  Re-run MRP: If changes have been made to the master data or planning parameters, consider re-running the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process to regenerate the planned quantities.
  
  
  Check for Deletions: Ensure that no planned orders or production orders have been inadvertently deleted, which could lead to a planned quantity of zero.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, consult SAP documentation or support for further troubleshooting steps specific to your version and configuration of SAP.
