Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES183 - Resource &1 has already been transferred as &2 from the R/3 system ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES183 indicates that a resource has already been transferred from the R/3 system to the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) system. This typically occurs during the data transfer process when there is an attempt to transfer a resource that has already been transferred previously, leading to a conflict.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Transfer: The resource in question has already been transferred to the APO system, and the system is trying to transfer it again.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data between the R/3 and APO systems, leading to the system not recognizing that the resource has already been transferred.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the data transfer might not be set up correctly, causing the system to attempt to transfer resources that are already present.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Resources: Verify in the APO system whether the resource already exists. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in APO (e.g., /SAPAPO/RES01 for resource display).
  Avoid Duplicate Transfers: Ensure that the transfer process is not being executed multiple times for the same resource. This can be managed by checking the transfer logs and ensuring that the transfer job is not being triggered more than once.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check between the R/3 and APO systems to ensure that the data is synchronized. You can use transaction /SAPAPO/RC1 to check for inconsistencies.
  Delete or Update Resource: If the resource needs to be updated or deleted, you may need to do so in the APO system before attempting to transfer it again from R/3.
  Review Transfer Settings: Check the settings in the R/3 system for the data transfer to APO. Ensure that the configuration is correct and that it allows for the proper transfer of resources.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in both R/3 and APO for managing resources and data transfers.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
