  The SAP error message CR260, which states "Maintain individual capacity & at superior capacity," typically occurs in the context of capacity planning and management within SAP's Production Planning (PP) module. This error indicates that there is a missing configuration or data entry related to the capacity of a work center or production resource.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Individual Capacity: The error usually arises when the individual capacity for a work center or production resource is not defined or maintained. This means that the system cannot find the necessary capacity data to perform calculations or planning.
  
  
  Superior Capacity Not Defined: The superior capacity (the overall capacity of a group of work centers or resources) may not be properly defined or linked to the individual capacity.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the work center or the capacity planning settings in the system.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CR260 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Maintain Individual Capacity:
  
  Go to the transaction code CR02 (Change Work Center) or CR01 (Create Work Center).
  Enter the work center ID and check the capacity data.
  Ensure that the individual capacity is defined correctly. This includes specifying the available capacity, utilization, and any other relevant parameters.
  
  
  
  Check Superior Capacity:
  
  If the work center is part of a hierarchy, ensure that the superior capacity is defined.
  Navigate to the superior work center and verify that it has the necessary capacity data maintained.
  
  
  
  Review Capacity Planning Settings:
  
  Check the configuration settings for capacity planning in the system. This may involve reviewing the settings in the IMG (Implementation Guide) under Production Planning > Capacity Requirements Planning.
  
  
  
  Consistency Check:
  
  Perform a consistency check to ensure that all related data is correctly maintained. This can often be done through transaction codes like CM01 (Capacity Planning) or CM21 (Capacity Leveling).
