• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/EOG003 - Heuristic only executable for prod.procurement type "in-house production" ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/EOG003 indicates that a heuristic is only executable for production procurement type "in-house production." This error typically arises in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when trying to run a heuristic that is not applicable to the selected procurement type.
  
  Cause:
  
  Procurement Type: The heuristic you are trying to execute is designed specifically for in-house production. If the material or product you are working with is set to a different procurement type (e.g., external procurement, subcontracting, etc.), the heuristic will not run.
  Master Data Configuration: The material master data may not be configured correctly, leading to the wrong procurement type being assigned.
  Heuristic Configuration: The heuristic itself may have been configured to only work with in-house production scenarios.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Procurement Type:
  
  Go to the material master data for the relevant product and check the procurement type. Ensure it is set to "in-house production" if you want to run the heuristic.
