• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES211 - Enter the ranges for the finiteness level without any overlap ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES211 indicates that there is an issue with the definition of ranges for the finiteness level in the Demand Management or Supply Network Planning (SNP) module of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO). This error typically arises when the defined ranges for the finiteness levels overlap, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by overlapping ranges defined for the finiteness levels in the planning book or in the configuration settings. Each finiteness level should have distinct, non-overlapping ranges to ensure that the system can correctly interpret and allocate resources without ambiguity.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Review the Finite Levels Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the finiteness levels in the relevant planning book or data view.
  Check the defined ranges for each finiteness level.
  
  
  
  Identify Overlapping Ranges:
  
  Look for any ranges that overlap with each other. For example, if you have defined a range of 1-10 for one level and another range of 5-15 for another, this would cause an overlap.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Ranges:
  
  Modify the ranges so that they do not overlap. Ensure that each range is distinct and covers a unique set of values.
  For example, you could change the second range to 11-15 to eliminate the overlap.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes in the configuration.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  Run the planning process again to ensure that the error has been resolved and that the system is functioning as expected.
