• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_ARTICLE_SCREENS003 - The fiber code to percentage fiber share was not specified ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_ARTICLE_SCREENS003: The fiber code to percentage fiber share was not specified
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Textile or Apparel Management modules (such as SAP Fashion Management or SAP Apparel and Footwear Solution) when the system expects fiber composition details for an article but these details are missing or incomplete.
  Specifically, the error indicates that the fiber code (which identifies the type of fiber, e.g., cotton, polyester) and its corresponding percentage share in the fiber composition of the article have not been maintained. The system requires this information to correctly process the article's material data, costing, or compliance checks.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain Fiber Composition Data:
  
  Go to the article master data maintenance transaction (e.g., MM02 or a specific transaction for textile articles).
  Navigate to the fiber composition or material composition screen.
  Enter the fiber codes and their corresponding percentage shares so that the total fiber composition sums up to 100%.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the fiber codes are properly configured in the system (e.g., in the fiber code master data).
  Verify that the article type or material type requires fiber composition and that the relevant fields are not optional.
  
  
  
  Validation:
  
  After entering the fiber composition, save the article master data.
  Retry the operation that triggered the error.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Fiber Codes: These are predefined codes representing different fiber types (e.g., cotton, wool, polyester). They are usually maintained in customizing under textile or material master data.
  Percentage Fiber Share: The sum of all fiber shares must be 100% for the article.
  Modules Involved: This error is common in SAP Fashion Management (FMS), SAP Apparel and Footwear (AFS), or Textile-specific solutions.
  Impact: Without fiber composition, processes like costing, labeling, compliance (e.g., labeling laws), and quality management may fail or produce incorrect results.
  
  
  Summary:
  
  Cause: Missing fiber code and percentage share in article master data.
  Solution: Maintain fiber composition details with valid fiber codes and percentage shares summing to 100%.
  Check: Fiber code master data and article type settings.
  
  If the problem persists after maintaining fiber composition, check for user exits or validations that might enforce additional rules on fiber data.
