    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WOD1015: No consumption or forecast values found:


    Error Message:

    WOD1015 - No consumption or forecast values found


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs in SAP when the system tries to perform a planning or forecasting activity (such as Material Requirements Planning (MRP), consumption-based planning, or forecast evaluation) but cannot find any historical consumption data or forecast values for the material in question.

    Common causes include:

    • No historical consumption data: The material has not been issued or consumed in the past periods that the system is considering.
    • No forecast data maintained: Forecast values have not been entered or generated for the material.
    • Incorrect selection parameters: The planning run or report is executed for a period or plant where no data exists.
    • Data not maintained or deleted: Consumption or forecast data might have been deleted or not maintained properly.
    • Wrong material master settings: The material might not be set up for consumption-based planning or forecasting.
    • Planning horizon issues: The system’s planning horizon might not cover the periods where consumption or forecast data exist.

    Solution:

    To resolve the WOD1015 error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Consumption Data:

      • Verify if there is any historical consumption data for the material.
      • Use transaction MC.9 (Consumption History) or MD04 (Stock/Requirements List) to check past consumption.
      • If no consumption data exists, consider whether the material is new or if consumption data needs to be recorded.
    2. Check Forecast Data:

      • Verify if forecast values exist for the material.
      • Use transaction MP30 (Forecast) or check forecast tables (e.g., /SAPAPO/FORECAST) if using APO.
      • If no forecast data exists, create or upload forecast values.
    3. Review Material Master Settings:

      • Check the material master (MM02) under MRP 2 view:
        • Ensure the Consumption Mode is set correctly (e.g., Periodic, Moving Average).
        • Check if the material is flagged for consumption-based planning.
      • Verify the Forecast Profile and Planning Strategy settings.
    4. Adjust Planning Parameters:

      • Review the planning horizon and selection parameters in the planning run.
      • Ensure the planning period covers the timeframe where consumption or forecast data exists.
    5. Data Maintenance:

      • If data was deleted or missing, restore or maintain the necessary consumption or forecast data.
      • For forecast, you can manually enter data or use forecasting tools.
    6. Run Planning Again:

      • After ensuring data availability, rerun the planning or forecasting process.

    Related Information:

    • Transactions:

      • MC.9 – Consumption History
      • MD04 – Stock/Requirements List
      • MP30 – Forecast Maintenance
      • MD01 / MD02 – MRP Run
      • MM02 – Change Material Master
    • SAP Notes:

      • Check SAP Notes related to forecasting and consumption-based planning for your SAP version.
      • Sometimes, specific patches or corrections are available.
    • Documentation:

      • SAP Help Portal sections on Consumption-Based Planning and Forecasting.
      • SAP APO documentation if using advanced planning.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Cause No historical consumption or forecast data found for the material in the planning period.
    Solution Verify and maintain consumption or forecast data; check material master and planning parameters; rerun planning.
    Related Info Use MC.9, MP30, MD04 to check data; ensure correct material master settings; consult SAP Notes.
