• Message number: 055

• Message text: Only materials from material master are possible as material master

What causes this issue?

You called the editing of follow-up/replacement material relationships

master, the original material of a follow-up/replacement material
relationship must be the material you are editing in the material
master. If a generic material is involved, you can only use a variant of
the generic material as the original material, but not the generic
material itself.

System Response

When you jump directly to the editing of follow-up/replacement
materials, you cannot display, create, change, or delete any other
follow-up/replacement material relationships.

How to fix this error?

Select the material (or a variant of the generic material) that you are
editing in the material master as the original material.
