  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You attempt to create or process a Quality Inspection Lot for a material that is not set up for batch management.
  The system expects a batch number to be associated with the material, but the material master data does not have batch management activated.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Go to the Material Master (Transaction Code: MM03).
  Check the material in question and navigate to the "Basic Data 1" or "Purchasing" views.
  Ensure that the "Batch Management" indicator is set if the material should be batch-managed.
  
  
  
  Activate Batch Management:
  
  If the material should be batch-managed, you can activate batch management by changing the material type or settings in the material master.
  You may need to consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to ensure that this change aligns with your business processes.
  
  
  
  Remove Batch Reference:
  
  If the material is not intended to be batch-managed, you may need to remove any references to batches in the inspection lot or related documents.
  Ensure that the inspection lot is created for a non-batch-managed material.
  
  
  
  Review Inspection Lot Creation:
  
  When creating inspection lots, ensure that the correct material and settings are being used.
  If you are using a custom program or transaction, verify that it is correctly handling batch management logic.
