• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/AMON_LIST073 - MLR: R**2 > Durbin Watson ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/AMON_LIST073 MLR: R**2 > Durbin Watson typically occurs in the context of the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module, particularly when dealing with statistical analysis in demand planning or forecasting.
  
  Cause:
  This error indicates that the R-squared value (R²) of a regression model is greater than the Durbin-Watson statistic. In regression analysis, R² measures the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variables. The Durbin-Watson statistic tests for the presence of autocorrelation in the residuals from a regression analysis. 
  When R² is greater than the Durbin-Watson statistic, it suggests that the model may be overfitting the data or that there are issues with the residuals, such as autocorrelation, which can lead to unreliable statistical inferences.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Model Specification: Ensure that the model is correctly specified. This includes verifying that the right independent variables are included
