  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_ARTICLE_SCREENS064
  
  Text: Component item number &1 of material &2 has unexpected value &3
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Variant Configuration (LO-VC) or Material Master data maintenance, especially when dealing with configurable materials and their components (BOM items).
  
  The message indicates that a component item number (BOM item) for a particular material has a value that is unexpected or inconsistent.
  This can happen if the component item number is not valid, missing, or does not conform to expected data formats or rules.
  It may also occur if the component item number is not maintained correctly in the BOM or if there is a mismatch between the BOM and the configuration profile.
  Sometimes, this error arises during screen validations in configuration or during mass changes or data uploads where the component data is checked against expected values.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the BOM for the Material:
  
  Go to transaction CS03 (Display BOM) or CS02 (Change BOM).
  Verify the component item number &1 for material &2.
  Ensure that the component item number exists and is correctly maintained.
  
  
  
  Validate Component Data:
  
  Check if the component item number &1 has valid data and is consistent with the material master &2.
  Confirm that the component is assigned correctly and that no invalid or unexpected values are present.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Profile:
  
  If this is related to variant configuration, check the configuration profile and dependencies.
  Make sure the component item number is allowed and expected in the configuration scenario.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Upload or Custom Code Issues:
  
  If the error appeared after a data upload or custom development, verify the data source and logic.
  Correct any inconsistencies or invalid values in the source data.
