• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/CTM1530 - Total (&1) incoming quota arrangements for loc. (&2) greater than 100% ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CTM1530 indicates that the total incoming quota arrangements for a specific location exceed 100%. This error typically arises in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when dealing with quota arrangements in the Capacity Planning or Supply Network Planning (SNP) modules.
  Cause:
  
  
  Quota Arrangement Configuration: The quota arrangements for the location in question have been set up in such a way that the sum of the quotas exceeds 100%. This can happen if multiple quota arrangements are defined for the same product and location, and their combined percentages exceed the allowable limit.
  
  
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in data entry where quotas were incorrectly defined or modified, leading to an incorrect total.
  
  
  Changes in Demand or Supply: Changes in demand or supply that were not reflected in the quota arrangements can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Quota Arrangements: Go to the quota arrangement configuration for the specific location and product. Check the individual quota percentages and ensure that their total does not exceed 100%. You can do this in the SAP GUI by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., /SAPAPO/QUOTA).
  
  
  Adjust Quota Percentages: If the total exceeds 100%, adjust the percentages of the individual quota arrangements so that they sum to 100% or less. 
  
  
  Delete or Modify Quotas: If certain quotas are no longer relevant, consider deleting or modifying them to bring the total within the acceptable range.
  
  
  Check for Overlapping Quotas: Ensure that there are no overlapping quotas that might be causing the total to exceed 100%.
  
  
  Re-run Planning: After making the necessary adjustments, re-run the planning process to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
