  SAP Error Message:
  VMP_MSG317: Assembly is consumed in related planning scope, load as context possible
  
  Cause
  This message typically occurs in the context of Variant Configuration (VC) and Production Planning (PP), especially when working with planning scopes in SAP. The error indicates that the assembly (a configurable material or product) you are trying to plan or process is already consumed or used within a related planning scope.
  In other words, the system detects that the assembly is part of another planning scope or planning context, and therefore, it cannot be planned independently or in the current scope without considering its usage in the related scope.
  This often happens when:
  
  The assembly is included in multiple planning scopes or planning versions.
  There is an overlap or dependency between planning scopes.
  The system tries to plan an assembly that is already planned or consumed in a related scope, which could lead to inconsistencies or double planning.
