• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M3604 - Range of coverage profile & is not allowed for plant & ?

  The SAP error message M3604 indicates that there is an issue with the range of coverage profile for a specific plant in the Material Management (MM) module. This error typically arises when the system is unable to find a valid coverage profile for the material in question, which is essential for planning and inventory management.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Coverage Profile: The coverage profile assigned to the material may not be valid for the specified plant.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings for the coverage profile in the system may not be set up correctly.
  Missing Data: The material master data may be incomplete or incorrectly maintained, leading to the system not being able to find the appropriate coverage profile.
  Plant-Specific Settings: The coverage profile may not be defined for the specific plant where the error is occurring.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Coverage Profile Assignment:
  
  Go to the material master data (transaction code MM03) and check the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) view.
  Ensure that the correct coverage profile is assigned to the material for the relevant plant.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Access the configuration settings for coverage profiles (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to the relevant section for MRP and check if the coverage profiles are correctly defined and assigned to the plants.
  
  
  
  Maintain Material Master Data:
  
  If the material master data is incomplete, update it with the necessary information, including the correct coverage profile.
  Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly.
  
  
  
  Check Plant-Specific Settings:

  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on coverage profiles and their configuration.
  
  
  
  Testing:
