- Material category &1 not defined for value-only materials ?SAP Error Message: W7053 - Material category &1 not defined for value-only materials
Cause: This warning message occurs when you try to create or process a material master record with a material category that is not allowed or not defined for value-only materials. Value-only materials are materials that do not have stock quantity management but have a value (e.g., services, consumables without stock). Certain material categories are restricted or not configured to be used for value-only materials. The system checks the material category against the configuration for value-only materials and issues this warning if the category is not allowed. Explanation: Material categories control the behavior of materials in SAP (e.g., whether they are stock materials, non-stock materials, services, etc.). For value-only materials, SAP expects the material category to be configured accordingly. If you assign a material category that is not set up for value-only materials, the system issues this warning to prevent inconsistent data.
Solution: Check the material category configuration: Go to transaction
