  The SAP error message:
  WRF_APC067: Material category &1 is not supported here
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a material category that is not allowed or supported in a particular context or transaction is used. Specifically, the system is trying to process or assign a material category that is invalid or not configured for the current process, such as in production planning, product costing, or material master data maintenance.
  For example, in the context of Product Costing or Production Orders, certain material categories (like non-stock materials or services) may not be supported for specific operations or master data settings.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Material Category:
  
  Verify the material category assigned to the material in the material master (transaction MM03).
  Confirm if this material category is valid for the process or transaction you are performing.
  
  
  
  Adjust Material Category or Process:
  
  If the material category is incorrect for the intended use, change it to a supported category (transaction MM02).
  If the material category is correct, check if the process or transaction supports this category.
  
  
  
  Configuration Check:
  
  Review the configuration settings in SPRO related to material categories and their allowed usage.
  For example, in Product Costing, check if the material category is allowed in costing or production.
