Message type: E = Error
Message class: RM - Messages for Repetitive Manufacturing
Message number: 175
Message text: Existing standard cost estimate cannot be used
This error appears under the following circumstances:
The existing standard cost estimate cannot be used for backflushing
activities as the repetitive manufacturing profile was not maintained
correctly when the standard cost estimate was carried out.
The standard cost estimate must come from product costing. Other cost
estimates (such as base object controlling) are not possible.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
The repetitive manufacturing profile assigned to the material at the
time of the planned cost estimate must be a profile for repetitive
manufacturing with product cost collector.
Use product costing to create the standard cost estimate.

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.
