• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W5013 - No requirement coverage request(s) found (Please check your input) ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  W5013 No requirement coverage request(s) found (Please check your input)
  
  Cause:
  This warning message typically occurs in SAP when the system is unable to find any requirement coverage requests based on the input parameters provided during a requirement coverage check or availability check. In other words, the system does not find any planned or actual demand (requirements) for the material or product in the specified scope or time frame.
  Common reasons include:
  
  The material or product does not have any planned independent requirements (PIRs), sales orders, or dependent requirements in the system for the selected period.
  The selection criteria (such as plant, MRP area, date range, or requirement type) are too restrictive or incorrect.
  The material master data or MRP settings might be incomplete or incorrect, leading to no coverage requests being generated.
  The requirement coverage check is performed for a material that is not relevant for planning or does not have any demand.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the W5013 message, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Input Parameters:
  
  Verify the material number, plant, MRP area, and other selection criteria used in the requirement coverage check.
  Ensure the date range or period for the check is correct and includes the time frame where requirements are expected.
  
  
  
  Verify Demand:
  
  Check if there are any planned independent requirements (PIRs), sales orders, or dependent requirements for the material.
  Use transaction MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) to see if any requirements exist for the material.
  If no requirements exist, create or simulate demand to test the coverage.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master and MRP Settings:
  
  Ensure the material is flagged for planning (MRP type is set correctly).
  Check if the material is relevant for MRP and has valid MRP parameters.
  Confirm that the plant and MRP area assignments are correct.
  
  
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria:
  
  Broaden the selection criteria to include more data or a wider time frame.
  Remove unnecessary filters that might exclude valid requirements.
  
  
  
  Check for System or Customizing Issues:
  
  If the problem persists, check for any custom enhancements or user exits that might affect requirement coverage.
  Review SAP notes or OSS messages related to W5013 for any known issues or patches.
