• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/LOC130 - Logical system (old) or logical system (new) initial ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/LOC130 typically indicates an issue related to the logical systems in the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. This error occurs when there is a mismatch or an issue with the logical system configuration, particularly when trying to transfer data between systems or when accessing certain functionalities that require a valid logical system.
  Cause:
  
  Logical System Configuration: The logical system may not be correctly defined in the system settings. This can happen if the logical system has been deleted or not properly set up.
  Data Transfer Issues: If you are trying to transfer data between systems (e.g., from SAP ERP to SAP APO), the logical system names may not match or may be incorrectly configured.
  Master Data Issues: The master data (like location, product, etc.) may reference a logical system that is no longer valid or has been changed.
  Transport Issues: If you are transporting objects between systems, the logical system might not be recognized in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Logical System Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SCC4 to check the logical system settings.
  Ensure that the logical systems are correctly defined and active.
  
  
  
  Verify Master Data:
  
  Check the master data in the APO system to ensure that it references valid logical systems.
  Use transaction /SAPAPO/LOC3 to check the location master data and ensure that the logical system is correctly assigned.
  
  
  
  Adjust Data Transfer Settings:
  
  If you are transferring data, ensure that the logical system names in the source and target systems match.
  Check the settings in transaction CIF (Core Interface) to ensure that the integration model is correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Transport Management:
  
  If the issue arises during a transport, ensure that the transport requests are correctly configured and that the logical systems are recognized in both the source and target systems.
  
  
  
  Check for System Updates:
  
  Ensure that both the SAP ERP and SAP APO systems are updated to compatible versions, as discrepancies can lead to logical system issues.
