How To Fix WM571 - Resetting the functionality to 1:1 assignment is not permitted

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WM - IS-R Assortments

• Message number: 571

• Message text: Resetting the functionality to 1:1 assignment is not permitted

What causes this issue?

You currently have multiple assignments between plants and assortments
and want to change the setting to a 1:1 assignment.

System Response

The change is not permitted because plants are already assigned to
assortments and it would therefore cause inconsistencies.

How to fix this error?

Delete all the assignments between plants and assortments. You can then
reset the switch to the 1:1 assignment.
You should note, however, that deleting the assignments may mean that
materials are no longer listed in plants.
