  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/LCM121 indicates that a Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS) planning object (PPM - Production Process Model) is using a product that is not relevant for Supply Network Planning (SNP) at a specific location. This typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is a mismatch between the planning objects and their relevance for SNP.
  Cause:
  
  Product Configuration: The product in question may not be set up correctly in the system to be relevant for SNP. This could be due to missing settings in the product master data or the location master data.
  Location Settings: The location where the product is being used may not be configured to allow SNP planning for that specific product.
  Planning Area: The planning area being used may not include the product or may not be set up to handle the product type.
  Integration Issues: There may be issues with the integration between PP/DS and SNP, leading to inconsistencies in how products are classified.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Product Master Data:
  
  Go to the product master data in APO and ensure that the product is marked as relevant for SNP. This can be done in the product's master data settings.
  Verify that the product type is compatible with SNP.
  
  
  
  Check Location Master Data:
  
  Review the location master data to ensure that the location is set up to allow SNP planning for the product.
  Ensure that the location is included in the relevant planning area.
  
  
  
  Review Planning Area Settings:
  
  Check the configuration of the planning area to ensure that it includes the product and is set up to handle the product type.
  
  
  
  Integration Settings:
  
  If applicable, check the integration settings between PP/DS and SNP to ensure that they are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Reassign PPM:
  
  If necessary, consider reassigning the PPM to a different product that is relevant for SNP or creating a new PPM for the product that meets the SNP criteria.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
