In SAP S/4 1909, when creating a Purchase Order and the message "ME047" is prompted with ERROR and saving the PO is not possible, what are the possible measure to be taken ?

(more than one answers)

A) MM01 to extend the Material Master with Purchasing data view.
B) MM01 to extend the Material Master with Accounting data view.
C) MMSC to extend the Material Master with Storage Location data.
D) Decide if it is an Accounting assignment Purchase Order and choose a Plant without Value update for the Material Type of the Material Master in the Purchase Order.
C) Storage Location was not entered in the Purchase Order line item.
.

Answer: B, D


If the user decides that the Purchasing scenario is Stock scenario, then next step is to extend the Material Master with Accounting data view.
If the user decides that the Purchasing scenario is Non-Stock /Non-valuated scenario, there will be 2 possible:
a) still extend the Material master with Accounting data view and re-create the PO but now enter also the Account assignment category. 

b) decide for the Material Master's Material Type for that Plant in PO creation should always be Account Assignment PO case and then request configuration of the Material Type/Plant combination in OMS2 to be set without "Value Update".
