• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/MD363 - Template profile & already assigned to user & ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/MD363 Template profile & already assigned to user & typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is an attempt to assign a template profile that is already assigned to another user. This can happen during the configuration of planning profiles or when trying to set up user-specific settings in the APO system.

  System Lock: The system might have a lock on the template profile due to ongoing processes or transactions.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Assignments: 
  
  Go to the transaction where you manage template profiles (e.g., /SAPAPO/MD61 for planning book profiles).
  Check which user is currently assigned to the template profile in question.
  
  
  
  Reassign or Remove Assignment:
  
  If you need to assign the template profile to a different user, you may need to first remove the existing assignment from the current user.

  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review the SAP documentation or help files related to template profiles and user assignments for any specific guidelines or restrictions.
