• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VMP_MSG307 - Usage &1 does not support handover of Versioned BOMs ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  VMP_MSG307: Usage &1 does not support handover of Versioned BOMs
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to hand over a Versioned Bill of Materials (BOM) to another system or process, but the Usage specified in the BOM does not support the handover of versioned BOMs.
  
  In SAP, BOMs can be versioned to manage changes over time.
  The Usage field in a BOM defines the context or purpose of the BOM (e.g., production, engineering, costing).
  Not all BOM usages are configured or allowed to be handed over when the BOM is versioned.
  The system checks the usage settings and if the usage does not support versioned BOM handover, it throws this error.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During the handover process of BOMs between SAP components or external systems.
  When using tools or transactions that transfer BOM data (e.g., Engineering Change Management, Product Lifecycle Management interfaces).
  When trying to release or transfer a versioned BOM with a usage that is not configured for versioned handover.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the BOM Usage Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SPRO ? Logistics - General ? Bill of Material ? Basic Settings ? Define BOM Usage.
  Verify the settings for the usage in question.
  Ensure that the usage supports versioned BOM handover.
  
  
  
  Adjust Usage Settings:
  
  If the usage does not support versioned BOM handover, you may need to:
  
  Change the usage to one that supports versioned BOM handover.
  Or configure the usage to allow versioned BOM handover if your business process requires it.
  
  
  
  
  
  Use a Supported Usage:
  
  If changing configuration is not possible, create or use a BOM with a usage that supports versioned BOM handover.
  
  
  
  Check the Versioning Settings:
  
  Verify that the BOM versioning is correctly maintained.
  Ensure that the versioning is consistent with the usage and handover process.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check for any SAP Notes related to VMP_MSG307 for specific patches or updates.

  Summary:
  The error VMP_MSG307 indicates that the BOM usage you are trying to hand over does not support versioned BOMs. To fix this, verify and adjust the BOM usage settings to allow versioned BOM handover or use a BOM usage that supports it.
