• Key Concepts: 
  MRP Material Exceptions are notifications that are triggered when a material requirement planning (MRP) run detects a discrepancy between the planned and actual stock levels of a material. These exceptions can be used to identify and resolve issues related to stock availability, such as shortages or overstocks. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The MRP Material Exceptions component of the Fiori UI for Material Requirements Planning (PP-FIO-MRP) allows users to view and manage MRP exceptions. The component provides an overview of all exceptions, including their type, material, and quantity. Users can also drill down into individual exceptions to view more detailed information. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When managing MRP exceptions, it is important to take into account the impact of any changes on other materials and processes. For example, if a shortage exception is resolved by increasing the order quantity of a material, this may result in an overstock exception for another material.
