  The SAP error message WV249 indicates that a plant group you are trying to assign no longer contains any plants. This typically occurs during the assignment of plants to a plant group in the SAP system, particularly in the context of materials management or production planning.
  Cause:
  
  No Plants Assigned: The plant group you are trying to use does not have any plants assigned to it. This can happen if the plants were removed or if the plant group was created without any plants.
  Data Deletion: Plants may have been deleted or deactivated in the system, leading to an empty plant group.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue where the plant group is not properly set up to include the relevant plants.
  
  Solution:

  Go to the configuration settings for plant groups in SAP (Transaction code: OX18 or similar).
  Verify that the plant group in question is correctly configured and that it includes the necessary plants.
