• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSD_MESSAGE247 - Plant-specific data has not been created for selected materials ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WSD_MESSAGE247: Plant-specific data has not been created for selected materials
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to perform an operation (such as creating a sales order, delivery, or any transaction that requires plant-specific material data) for materials that do not have the necessary plant-specific master data maintained in the system.
  In SAP, material master data is maintained at different organizational levels:
  
  Client level (basic data)
  Plant level (plant-specific data)
  Storage location level (storage location-specific data)
  
  If the material master record exists but the plant-specific views (such as MRP, Work Scheduling, or Sales views) are not maintained for the plant involved in the transaction, SAP will throw this error.
  
  Typical Scenarios:
  
  Creating a sales order or delivery for a material that lacks plant-specific data.
  Running MRP or production planning for a material without plant data.
  Inventory transactions where plant data is mandatory but missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction MM03 (Display Material) to check if the material has plant-specific data maintained for the plant in question.
  Enter the material number and plant, and verify if the relevant views (e.g., MRP 1, Work Scheduling, Sales: Plant Data) exist.
  
  
  
  Create/Extend Plant-Specific Data:
  
  Use transaction MM02 (Change Material) to add the missing plant-specific views for the material.
  Enter the material number and select the plant.
  Add the required views (e.g., MRP 1, Work Scheduling, Sales: Plant Data) and maintain the necessary data.
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  If Material Does Not Exist for the Plant:
  
  You may need to create the material master for the plant using MM01 (Create Material) and include the plant-specific views.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:
  
  Sometimes, the error can be triggered if the system expects plant-specific data due to configuration in sales or logistics processes.
  Verify if the plant is correctly assigned in the sales area or other organizational units.

  Summary:
  The error WSD_MESSAGE247 indicates missing plant-specific material master data. To resolve it, ensure that the material master record includes the necessary plant-specific views for the plant involved in the transaction. Use MM02 to add or maintain this data.
