Diagnosis
You have entered a follow-up group for a BOM item. The follow-up group is used to identify an item as a follow-up item - an item which replaces a discontinued item.
System Response
The system checks the material master record of the item. The discontinuation indicator in the discontinuation data (MRP3 view) of the material master record for this item is the value 1 (simple/parallel discontinue). This value means that you must enter a follow-up material in the material master record.
Procedure
Since a follow-up material is maintained in the material master record of this BOM item, the item is a discontinued material. Once a material has been defined as discontinued, you can no longer define the material as a follow-up item for another item in a BOM.
You can only define this material as a follow-up item if you change the value for the discontinuation indicator in the material master record. Otherwise, you have to enter a different follow-up item.
