The SAP error message C2017 "No current missing parts list exists for order & (new availability check)" typically occurs during the availability check process in the context of production orders or sales orders. This error indicates that the system cannot find a missing parts list for the specified order, which is necessary for determining the availability of components required for production or delivery.
Causes:
Missing Parts List: The most common cause is that there is no missing parts list created for the order in question. This can happen if the order was created without a proper BOM (Bill of Materials) or if the parts list has not been generated or updated.
Order Status: The order may be in a status that does not allow for the generation of a missing parts list. For example, if the order is already completed or closed, the system may not generate a missing parts list.
Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent the availability check from functioning correctly.
Master Data Issues: Problems with the master data, such as missing or incorrect BOMs, material master records, or routing information, can lead to this error.
Solutions:
Check the Order: Verify the status of the order and ensure that it is in a state that allows for the generation of a missing parts list. If necessary, change the status of the order.
Create/Update the Missing Parts List: If the missing parts list does not exist, you may need to create it manually or ensure that it is generated automatically by the system. This can often be done through the transaction code for the order type you are working with.
Review BOM and Master Data: Check the BOM associated with the order to ensure it is correctly defined and that all components are available. Make sure that the material master records are complete and accurate.
Run Availability Check: After ensuring that the missing parts list is created and the master data is correct, run the availability check again to see if the error persists.
Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific details related to your version of SAP, as there may be version-specific considerations.
Contact Support: If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
