It means for a Part that you didn't define any Color for this part.

By default, color 0 being the "Not applicable" color.

You've to set up a specific color for those parts. I mean, for a "normal"
wanted-list use.

Yes, in hidden parts are often put in Not applicable, so you can use any color
brick you have, or order the cheapest color.

Cheapest color is difficult to tell, it really depends the parts...

But often Black is one of the cheapest.

I'm not sure if Bricklinkk has solved it (or if it is even solvable in a
good way). But as far as I can remember, if you have parts with "not applicable"
colors in your wanted list, then it will accept all available colors in the stores
you buy from(makes sense). Then if you try to update the wanted list with the
parts that you bought, then the "Not applicable" parts won't be updated(which
is kind of understandable as the parts bought has a specific color).

I ended up buying parts in many colors from many different sellers until I noticed
:/
