    3. Adjust Customizing Settings:

      • If the usage is not set up correctly, you may need to adjust the customizing settings. This can involve defining the production relevance for the specific usage in the system.
      • Consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to ensure that the necessary settings are in place.
