  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DEPL_MESS156 ("No relevant products found") typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when the system is unable to find any products that meet the criteria specified in the planning or deployment process. This can happen for various reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for finding a solution.
  Causes:
  
  
  Product Master Data Issues: The products you are trying to plan or deploy may not be set up correctly in the system. This includes missing or incorrect product master data.
  
  
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the planning run may be too restrictive, leading to no products being selected. This could include filters based on product hierarchy, location, or other attributes.
  
  
  Planning Version: The planning version you are using may not have any active products. Ensure that the version is correctly set up and contains the relevant products.
  
  
  Product Status: The products may be inactive or not relevant for the planning run. Check the status of the products in the system.
  
  
  Data Integration Issues: If the product data is being pulled from another system (like SAP ECC), there may be issues with data integration or synchronization.
  
  
  Time Period: The time period for which you are trying to run the planning may not have any relevant data for the products.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Product Master Data: Verify that the product master data is complete and accurate. Ensure that all necessary fields are filled out and that the products are active.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Reassess the selection criteria used in the planning run. Make sure they are not overly restrictive and that they include the products you expect to see.
  
  
  Validate Planning Version: Ensure that you are using the correct planning version and that it contains the relevant products. You can check this in the planning book or through the version management.
  
  
  Check Product Status: Look into the status of the products in the system. If they are inactive, you may need to activate them or adjust your planning parameters.
  
  
  Data Synchronization: If you suspect data integration issues, check the data transfer processes between systems. Ensure that the product data is being correctly transferred and updated.
  
  
  Adjust Time Period: Make sure that the time period you are analyzing has relevant data for the products. If necessary, expand the time frame.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may want to use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/SDP94 (for planning book) or /SAPAPO/MC90 (for product view) to investigate the product data and planning settings.
