  No valid quota arrangement: If quota arrangements are used, no valid quota exists for the material and plant.
  Material is not flagged for procurement: The material master data does not allow procurement for the plant.
  No valid vendor assigned: The system cannot determine a vendor for the material and plant.
  Incorrect or missing purchasing data: Purchasing view in material master or vendor master data is incomplete or incorrect.
