  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE108 - No checking group maintained for material &1, plant &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WSD_MESSAGE108 No checking group maintained for material &1, plant &2


    Cause:

    This error occurs because the system expects a checking group to be assigned to the material in the specified plant, but none has been maintained. The checking group is a key configuration in SAP that controls how the system performs availability checks or other validations during processes like sales order creation, delivery, or production.

    • The checking group is typically maintained in the material master record (in the MRP or sales views).
    • If the system is configured to perform availability checks or other validations that require a checking group, and the material does not have one assigned for the plant, this error is triggered.

    Where is the Checking Group maintained?

    • Material Master (MM02/MM03)
    • View: MRP 1 or Sales: Sales Org. 2 (depending on the process)
    • Field: Checking Group

    Solution:

    1. Maintain the Checking Group for the Material:

      • Go to transaction MM02 (Change Material).
      • Enter the material number and plant.
      • Navigate to the MRP 1 view (or the relevant view depending on your process).
      • Find the field Checking Group.
      • Assign the appropriate checking group value.
      • Save the changes.
    2. If you are unsure which checking group to assign:

      • Consult your SAP MM or SD functional consultant.
      • Check the configuration in SPRO under:
        • Logistics Execution ? Shipping ? Basic Shipping Functions ? Availability Check ? Checking Groups
        • or
        • Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements ? Checking Groups
    3. Verify Configuration:

      • Ensure that the checking group assigned to the material is valid and active.
      • Check if the plant-specific settings require a checking group.

    Additional Information:

    • The checking group controls the type of availability check performed during sales order processing or production planning.
    • If the system is set to perform availability checks but the material lacks a checking group, the system cannot determine how to check availability, hence the error.
    • This error is common in scenarios involving sales order processing, delivery creation, or MRP runs where availability checks are mandatory.
    • Sometimes, the error can also occur if the material master is incomplete or if the plant-specific data is missing.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Message WSD_MESSAGE108 No checking group maintained for material &1, plant &2
    Cause No checking group assigned to material for the plant, but system expects one for availability check or validation.
    Solution Maintain the checking group in material master (MM02) for the plant in the relevant view (MRP 1 or Sales).
    Transaction MM02 (Change Material Master)
    Configuration Path SPRO ? Logistics Execution / Sales and Distribution ? Availability Check ? Checking Groups

    If you need help identifying the correct checking group or further assistance, please provide details about the process (e.g., sales order, delivery, MRP) and the material/plant involved.
