SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Create an MRP controller in SSCUI 101114 - Define MRP Controllers in Productive system.
- Assign it to a material in Change Material app.
- Get the error message.
Cause
The MRP controller is locked by the open change project in the Quality system which contains the MRP controller related configurations.
Although this configuration activity is "Redo in P" which means the configurations should be made directly in the P system. the unfinished change request in Q system will still affect the use of the MRP controller in the P system.
Resolution
Finish the corresponding change project in the Q system, then the MRP controller can be used in the P system.
