• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/CDPSOPT724 - Resource &1 required but is not selected ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CDPSOPT724 Resource &1 required but is not selected typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when a resource that is necessary for a specific planning operation is not selected or allocated in the planning run. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during production planning, capacity planning, or when creating a production order.
  Cause:
  
  Resource Not Selected: The resource (e.g., machine, labor) required for the operation is not selected in the planning run.
  Resource Availability: The resource may not be available or may be set to inactive in the system.
  Planning Object Configuration: The planning object (e.g., production order, planned order) may not have the necessary resource assigned.
  Resource Master Data: The resource master data may not be correctly configured, leading to the system not recognizing it as available for selection.
  Capacity Constraints: There may be capacity constraints that prevent the resource from being selected.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Resource Selection: Ensure that the required resource is selected in the planning run. You can do this by reviewing the planning parameters and settings.

  Verify Resource Master Data: Review the resource master data to ensure that all necessary configurations are in place. This includes checking the resource type, capacity, and any relevant settings.
  Adjust Capacity Planning: If there are capacity constraints, consider adjusting the capacity planning settings to allow for the resource to be selected.
  Run Planning Again: After making the necessary adjustments, run the planning process again to see if the error persists.
