• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC150 - Planned material of category sales set is not supported ?

  The SAP error message:
  WRF_APC150: Planned material of category sales set is not supported
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to plan or process a material that is classified as a Sales Set (material type or category) in a context where planned materials are expected to be of a different type. In SAP, Sales Sets are special materials used to represent a group or set of materials sold together, but they are not intended to be planned individually in the production planning or MRP process.
  The system does not support planning for materials of the sales set category because these materials are not stocked or produced themselves; instead, they are a virtual grouping of other materials.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Sales Set materials are typically used in Sales and Distribution (SD) to bundle multiple materials into one sales item.
  They do not have their own inventory or production data.
  Planning (MRP, forecasting, etc.) is done on the individual components, not on the sales set itself.
  Attempting to run planning or related processes on a sales set material triggers this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Type:
  
  Verify the material master data for the material in question.
  Confirm that the material is indeed a sales set (e.g., material type KMAT or configured as a sales set).
  
  
  
  Adjust Planning Scope:
  
  Exclude sales set materials from planning runs.
  Plan only the individual components or base materials that make up the sales set.
  
  
  
  Review Planning Parameters:
  
  In your planning run (e.g., MRP), ensure that the selection criteria exclude sales set materials.
  Use appropriate filters or material type selections.
  
  
  
  Sales Set Usage:
  
  Use sales sets only in sales documents and pricing.
  Do not use sales sets in production or inventory planning.
  
  
  
  If Planning is Required:
  
  If you need to plan something related to the sales set, plan the components individually.
  Alternatively, consider redesigning the process to avoid planning sales sets.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Material Types: Sales sets are often defined as KMAT (Configurable Material) or other special types.
  Sales Set Functionality: Used in SD for grouping materials, pricing, and sales order processing.
  Planning in SAP: MRP and forecasting are designed for materials with inventory and production data.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to sales sets and planning if you encounter further issues.
  Transaction Codes: Use MM03 to check material master, MD04 for stock/requirements list, and MD01 for MRP runs.
  
  
  Summary:
  
  Cause: Attempting to plan a sales set material, which is not supported.
  Solution: Exclude sales set materials from planning; plan individual components instead.
  Additional: Use sales sets only in sales processes, not in production or inventory planning.
