  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES258 - Minimum capacity(%) must be less than or equal to 100. ?

    The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES258 indicates that there is an issue with the minimum capacity percentage defined for a resource in the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. Specifically, the error states that the minimum capacity percentage must be less than or equal to 100%. This error typically arises when the configuration for a resource's capacity is incorrectly set.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Configuration: The minimum capacity percentage for a resource has been set to a value greater than 100%. This is not valid, as capacity percentages should logically range from 0% to 100%.
    2. Data Entry Error: During the setup or maintenance of the resource, a user may have mistakenly entered a value greater than 100%.
    3. System Migration or Data Upload: If data was migrated or uploaded into the system, it may have included incorrect values for the minimum capacity.

    Solution:

    1. Check Resource Configuration:

      • Navigate to the resource configuration in the APO system.
      • Verify the minimum capacity percentage setting for the affected resource.
      • Ensure that the value is set to a valid percentage (0% to 100%).
    2. Correct the Value:

      • If the value is greater than 100%, change it to a valid percentage.
      • Save the changes and re-test the process that triggered the error.
    3. Review Data Uploads:

      • If the error occurred after a data upload, review the data source to ensure that all values are within the acceptable range.
      • Correct any discrepancies in the source data and re-upload if necessary.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on configuring resource capacities correctly.
    5. Testing:

      • After making the necessary changes, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the resource behaves as expected in planning scenarios.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/RES01 (Resource Overview) or /SAPAPO/RES02 (Resource Maintenance) to access and modify resource settings.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional insights or fixes related to this error.
