  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IW295 - Relevance to MRP set at 3, as order released or activated ?

    The SAP error message IW295 indicates that there is an issue with the relevance of a maintenance order to the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process. Specifically, the message states that the order is set to a relevance level of 3, which means it is considered relevant to MRP, but it has already been released or activated.

    Cause:

    1. Order Status: The maintenance order has been released or activated, but the system is configured to treat it as relevant to MRP. This can lead to conflicts in how the order is processed within the MRP framework.
    2. Configuration Settings: The settings in the order type or the MRP settings may not align with the current status of the order. For example, if the order type is set to be relevant to MRP but the order is already in a status that does not allow for MRP processing, this error can occur.
    3. Order Type: The specific order type used may have been configured incorrectly, leading to this inconsistency.

    Solution:

    1. Check Order Status: Verify the status of the maintenance order. If it is already released or activated, consider whether it should be relevant to MRP. If not, you may need to change the order type or its configuration.
    2. Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the order type in the SAP system. Ensure that the settings for MRP relevance are appropriate for the type of maintenance orders you are processing.
    3. Adjust MRP Settings: If necessary, adjust the MRP settings for the order type to ensure that it aligns with the intended use of the order. This may involve changing the relevance level or the way the order interacts with MRP.
    4. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the implications of changing the order type or MRP settings.

    Related Information:

    • Order Types: Different order types in SAP can have different settings regarding MRP relevance. Understanding the specific order type you are working with can help in troubleshooting.
    • MRP Relevance Levels: Familiarize yourself with the different levels of MRP relevance (0, 1, 2, 3) and what they mean in the context of maintenance orders.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional guidance on handling MRP-related issues with maintenance orders.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or a consultant who specializes in SAP MRP and maintenance order processing.

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.
