  The SAP error message ATP_ABC_VDM701 indicates that there is a mapping issue between the ATP (Available-to-Promise) category and the ATP-relevant document type. This error typically arises in the context of Advanced ATP (aATP) functionalities, where the system is unable to find a valid mapping for the specified ATP category to the document type being processed.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Mapping Configuration: The most common cause is that the mapping between the ATP category and the document type has not been defined in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an incorrect or incomplete configuration in the settings for ATP categories or document types.
  Data Issues: There could be issues with the data being processed, such as incorrect document types or ATP categories being used in the transaction.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or enhancements, they might not be correctly handling the mapping.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (SPRO) and navigate to the relevant section for Advanced ATP.
  Check the settings for mapping ATP categories to document types. Ensure that the necessary mappings are defined correctly.
  
  
  
  Define Missing Mappings:
  
  If the mapping is missing, you will need to create it. This typically involves specifying which ATP category corresponds to which document type.
  
  
  
  Review Document Types:
  
  Ensure that the document types being used in the transaction are valid and correctly configured in the system.
  
  
  
  Check User Exits or BAdIs:
  
  If there are any user exits or BAdIs (Business Add-Ins) that are supposed to handle ATP logic, review them to ensure they are functioning correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to ATP configuration for any specific instructions or known issues.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the ATP functionality works as expected.
