• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/CIF153 - Order with internal no. &1 (material &2, plant &3) only exists in APO ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CIF153 indicates that there is an issue with the integration between SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) and the SAP ERP system. Specifically, this error occurs when an order exists in the APO system but does not have a corresponding entry in the SAP ERP system. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Order Creation in APO: The order with the specified internal number exists only in the APO system, which means it was created or processed in APO without being transferred to the ERP system.
  Integration Issues: There may be issues with the CIF (Core Interface) settings or configuration that prevent the order from being transferred from APO to ERP.
  Data Consistency: There might be inconsistencies in master data or configuration settings between the two systems, leading to the order not being recognized in ERP.
  Order Deletion: The order may have been deleted in the ERP system after it was created in APO, leading to this discrepancy.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check CIF Settings: Ensure that the CIF settings are correctly configured for the relevant materials and plants. This includes checking the integration model and ensuring that the order type is included in the model.
  Re-Transfer the Order: If the order is valid and should exist in both systems, you can try to re-transfer the order from APO to ERP. This can be done by executing the CIF transfer process.
  Check for Errors in CIF: Use transaction codes like CIF or CIFMON in SAP to monitor the CIF process and check for any errors or issues that may have occurred during the transfer.
  Review Master Data: Ensure that the relevant master data (materials, plants, etc.) is consistent and correctly set up in both systems. This includes checking for any missing or incorrect data.
  Manual Creation: If the order is critical and cannot be transferred, consider manually creating the order in the ERP system, ensuring that it matches the details in APO.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on troubleshooting.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes such as /SAPAPO/OM_ORDER for order management in APO and CIF for CIF-related activities.
  Integration Models: Understand how integration models work in CIF and ensure that the necessary objects are included in the model.
  Monitoring Tools: Use monitoring tools available in SAP to track the status of data transfer between APO and ERP.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on CIF configuration and troubleshooting.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
