• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_APP022 - Specify suboperation ?

  The SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_APP022 Specify suboperation typically occurs in the context of the SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) module, particularly when dealing with routing or production planning. This error indicates that a suboperation needs to be specified for a particular operation in a routing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Suboperation: The most common cause of this error is that a routing operation has been defined without specifying a corresponding suboperation. In SAP, operations can have multiple suboperations, and if one is expected but not provided, this error will be triggered.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue in the routing setup where the suboperation is not properly defined or linked to the main operation.
  Data Entry Error: During the creation or modification of a routing, a user may have inadvertently skipped the suboperation field.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Routing Details:
  
  Go to the routing transaction (e.g., CA01 for creating a routing, CA02 for changing a routing).
  Locate the operation that is causing the error and check if a suboperation is defined.
  If not, add the necessary suboperation details.
  
  
  
  Define Suboperations:
  
  If suboperations are required for the operation, ensure that they are defined correctly in the routing.
  You can do this by selecting the operation and then adding suboperations in the relevant section.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration, consult with your SAP configuration team or refer to the SAP documentation to ensure that the routing and suboperation settings are correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the routing again to ensure that the error no longer appears.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CA01 (Create Routing), CA02 (Change Routing), and CA03 (Display Routing).
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help Portal or specific PLM documentation for detailed guidance on routing and suboperations.
  User Roles: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to create or modify routings and suboperations.
  Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
