• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/CDPSOPT726 - Optimization profile does not contain mode costs ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CDPSOPT726 Optimization profile does not contain mode costs typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), particularly when working with the Supply Network Planning (SNP) or Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS) modules. This error indicates that the optimization profile you are using for a planning run does not have the necessary mode costs defined.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Mode Costs: The optimization profile you are using lacks the definition of mode costs for the transportation or production modes. Mode costs are essential for the optimization process to evaluate the cost implications of different planning scenarios.
  Incorrect Configuration: The optimization profile may not be correctly configured to include the necessary cost parameters.
  Profile Assignment: The optimization profile assigned to the planning run may not be the correct one that includes mode costs.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Mode Costs:
  
  Go to the transaction code /SAPAPO/OPT_PROFILE to access the optimization profile settings.
  Check the configuration of the optimization profile you are using.
  Ensure that mode costs are defined for all relevant modes (e.g., transportation modes, production modes).
  If mode costs are missing, you will need to create or update the mode costs in the relevant master data (e.g., transportation lanes, production resources).
  
  
  
  Check Optimization Profile Assignment:
  
  Verify that the correct optimization profile is assigned to the planning run.
  If necessary, change the assignment to a profile that includes mode costs.
  
  
  
  Review Master Data:
  
  Ensure that all relevant master data (e.g., transportation lanes, production resources, and their associated costs) is correctly maintained in the system.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, run a test planning run to ensure that the error does not occur again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on setting up optimization profiles and defining mode costs.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance related to this error message.
  Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or user groups for insights and solutions shared by other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error message and ensure that your optimization profile is correctly configured for your planning needs.
