Summary :
The creation of product groups using transaction MC84 fails with error messages E00055 and MA151 indicating 'Required entry not made.' Potential causes include missing industry sector 'M,' incomplete Table T438A for MRP procedures, incorrect material type PROD, custom required-entry fields in the material master, restricted maintenance views in Customizing for the plant, and incomplete custom batch input structure ZMMH1. Solutions involve creating the industry sector, ensuring 'ND' MRP type settings, correcting material type PROD configurations, modifying MMCP3FP0 FORM routine, validating field restrictions, and adjusting the ZMMH1 structure with report RMMMBIMG.
