• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG096 - Mat. & will be reordered for customer using Replenishment. Item ignored ?

  The SAP error message:
  WG096: Mat. & will be reordered for customer using Replenishment. Item ignored
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This message occurs during sales order processing or ATP (Available-to-Promise) check when the system identifies that the material in the sales order is planned to be reordered using a replenishment strategy (e.g., MRP or special procurement) rather than being directly available from stock or production. Because the material is planned to be replenished, the system ignores the item for certain processes like ATP check or delivery creation.
  In other words, the system recognizes that the material is not currently available and will be procured or produced based on replenishment planning, so it does not confirm availability or proceed with the item in the current step.
  
  Typical Causes:
  
  The material is set up with a replenishment strategy (e.g., MRP type, special procurement key).
  The material is not available in stock at the time of sales order processing.
  The system is configured to ignore items that require replenishment during certain checks.
  The item category or schedule line category in the sales order is set to allow replenishment but not immediate confirmation.
  
  
  Solution / How to handle:
  
  
  Check Material Master:
  
  Verify the MRP type and procurement type in the material master (MM02, MRP 1 and MRP 2 views).
  Confirm if the material is planned via MRP or special procurement.
  
  
  
  Review Sales Order Item Category and Schedule Line Category:
  
  Check if the item category allows replenishment.
  Check schedule line category settings for availability check and confirmation control.
  
  
  
  ATP Check Settings:
  
  Review the ATP check configuration to see if items planned for replenishment are excluded.
  Adjust ATP check settings if you want the system to consider replenishment items differently.
  
  
  
  Stock and Procurement:
  
  Check stock levels and planned procurement orders.
  Run MRP to generate procurement proposals if not already done.
  
  
  
  Sales and Distribution Settings:
  
  If the business process requires immediate confirmation, consider changing the item category or schedule line category to allow availability check on replenishment items.
  Alternatively, accept that the item will be confirmed once replenishment is complete.
  
  
  
  Ignore the message if expected:
  
  This message is informational and not an error that stops processing.
  It indicates that the item will be reordered and is not currently available.
  No action needed if this behavior is intended.

  Configuration:

  Summary:
  The message WG096 informs you that the material in the sales order is planned to be replenished (e.g., via MRP) and therefore the item is ignored in the current availability or delivery process. This is normal behavior for materials managed by replenishment. You should verify material master and sales order settings to ensure this aligns with your business process. No immediate correction is required unless you want to change how replenishment items are handled in sales order processing.
