  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/CTM4305 - Orders for source of supply &1 could be shifted after CTM run ?

    The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CTM4305 indicates that there are orders for a source of supply that could potentially be shifted after a CTM (Capable-to-Match) run. This message typically arises in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) within SAP, particularly when dealing with supply chain planning and order management.

    Cause:

    1. Order Constraints: The orders may have constraints that prevent them from being shifted. This could be due to fixed dates, lead times, or other scheduling constraints that are defined in the system.
    2. Resource Availability: The resources (e.g., production capacity, transportation) may not be available to accommodate the shifting of orders.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the CTM that are not allowing the orders to be shifted, such as settings related to prioritization or order types.
    4. Planning Parameters: The planning parameters set in the CTM profile may not allow for the shifting of certain orders based on their characteristics or the overall planning strategy.

    Solution:

    1. Review Order Constraints: Check the specific orders that are causing the issue and review their constraints. If possible, adjust the constraints to allow for shifting.
    2. Check Resource Availability: Ensure that the necessary resources are available for the orders to be shifted. This may involve checking production schedules, transportation availability, and other related resources.
    3. Adjust CTM Configuration: Review the CTM configuration settings to ensure that they allow for the shifting of orders. This may involve adjusting the planning strategy or prioritization settings.
    4. Modify Planning Parameters: If the planning parameters are too restrictive, consider modifying them to allow for more flexibility in order shifting.
    5. Run CTM Again: After making the necessary adjustments, run the CTM process again to see if the orders can now be shifted.

    Related Information:

    • CTM Profiles: Familiarize yourself with the CTM profiles and their settings, as these can significantly impact how orders are processed and shifted.
    • Order Types: Understand the different order types in your system and how they interact with the CTM process.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on the CTM process and error messages.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on resolving it.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP APO expert or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
