VMP_MSG380 - Details

• Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  VMP_MSG380: Source and target hierarchy for the component &1 do not match.
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of a production order, process order, or during the component assignment in the production or planning process. The system checks the hierarchy of components in the Bill of Materials (BOM) or routing and finds that the source hierarchy (where the component is currently assigned) and the target hierarchy (where the component is being assigned or moved) do not match.
  In other words, the component is expected to be assigned to a certain hierarchy level (e.g., assembly, sub-assembly) but the system detects a mismatch between the source and target hierarchy levels for that component.
  This can happen due to:
  
  Incorrect BOM structure or changes in the BOM without proper update.
  Incorrect assignment of components in the routing or production order.
  Manual changes or inconsistencies in the component assignment.
