  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC029 - No components exist for prepack material &1 ?

    The SAP error message:

    WRF_APC029 No components exist for prepack material &1

    typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or SAP ERP when dealing with prepack materials (also known as prepackaged materials or kits). This message indicates that the system cannot find any components assigned to the specified prepack material.


    Cause

    • The prepack material (material number &1) does not have any components assigned in the system.
    • In SAP, a prepack material is a material that consists of multiple components (e.g., a kit or a set). If the system tries to explode or plan this prepack material but no components are maintained, it triggers this error.
    • This can happen if:
      • The Bill of Materials (BOM) for the prepack material is missing or incomplete.
      • The BOM exists but is not flagged or maintained correctly as a prepack or kit BOM.
      • The material master or planning settings do not correctly identify the material as a prepack material.
      • Data inconsistencies or master data errors.

    Solution

    1. Check the BOM for the prepack material:

      • Use transaction CS03 (Display BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM) to verify if the BOM exists for the prepack material.
      • Ensure that the BOM contains components.
      • If no BOM exists, create one with the correct components.
    2. Verify BOM usage and status:

      • Confirm that the BOM usage is appropriate for the planning or production process (e.g., usage 5 for prepack).
      • Check that the BOM is valid for the relevant plant and date.
    3. Check material master settings:

      • In transaction MM02, check the material type and relevant views (e.g., MRP views).
      • Ensure the material is flagged or set up correctly as a prepack or kit material if applicable.
    4. Review planning and APO settings:

      • If using APO, check the integration and master data consistency between ERP and APO.
      • Make sure the prepack material and its components are correctly replicated and maintained in APO.
    5. Recreate or correct master data if necessary:

      • If the BOM or material master data is corrupted or incomplete, recreate or correct it.
    6. Check customizing and configuration:

      • Verify if any custom settings or user exits affect the handling of prepack materials.

    Related Information

    • Prepack Material: A material that is sold or planned as a set of components rather than individually.
    • BOM (Bill of Materials): Defines the components that make up a prepack material.
    • Transactions:

      • MM02 - Change Material Master
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Service Marketplace for notes related to WRF_APC029 or prepack material issues.
    • APO Integration: Ensure master data synchronization between ERP and APO is consistent.
