• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V1814 - Item & has no active requirements ?

  The SAP error message V1814 ("Item & has no active requirements") typically occurs in the context of sales order processing, particularly when dealing with availability checks and requirements for items in the order. This message indicates that the system cannot find any active requirements for the specified item, which means that the item is not linked to any demand that would require it to be available.
  Causes:
  
  No Open Sales Orders or Requirements: The item may not have any open sales orders or other requirements that necessitate its availability.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the material or the sales order may not be set up correctly, leading to the system not recognizing any active requirements.

  Review Material Master: Check the material master data for the item to ensure that it is set up correctly. Look for any restrictions or statuses that might prevent it from being considered in availability checks.
  Adjust Availability Check: Review the availability check settings in the material master (under MRP 2 view) to ensure that it is configured to consider the appropriate requirements.
  Check Item Category: Ensure that the item category in the sales order is set up to create requirements. You may need to consult with your SAP configuration team to verify this.
