• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_RCA_PSM001 - Simulation name &1 does not apply to the defined naming convention ?

  The SAP error message /PLMI/RTG_RCA_PSM001 indicates that the simulation name you are trying to use does not conform to the defined naming convention set in the system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or similar modules where specific naming conventions are enforced for simulations or other objects.
  Cause:
  
  
  Naming Convention Violation: The simulation name you provided does not match the expected format or rules defined in the system. This could be due to:
  
  Incorrect characters (e.g., special characters that are not allowed).
  Incorrect length (too short or too long).
  Incorrect structure (e.g., missing required prefixes or suffixes).
  
  
  
  Configuration Settings: The naming conventions may be configured in the system settings, and the simulation name you are using does not comply with these settings.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Naming Convention: Review the naming convention rules defined in your SAP system. This can usually be found in the configuration settings for the relevant module (e.g., PLM). Ensure that your simulation name adheres to these rules.
  
  
  Modify Simulation Name: Change the simulation name to comply with the defined naming convention. Ensure that:
  
  It contains only allowed characters.
  It meets the required length.
  It follows any specific structure or format required.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the naming conventions, refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific module you are working with.
  
  
  System Configuration: If you have access to system configuration, you may want to check if the naming conventions can be modified to accommodate your needs. However, this should be done with caution and typically requires appropriate authorization.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide guidance based on your specific system configuration.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to PLM or the specific module you are working with, as they may provide additional insights or configuration options.
  User Forums: Consider visiting SAP community forums or user groups where similar issues may have been discussed, and solutions shared.
