• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/MSDP_DET002 - New scheduled date for order &1 is not within the planning horizon ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/MSDP_DET002 indicates that the new scheduled date for an order is outside the defined planning horizon in the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. This typically occurs when you attempt to reschedule or change an order's date, and the new date falls outside the range of dates that the system is configured to consider for planning.
  Cause:
  
  Planning Horizon Configuration: The planning horizon is set in the APO system, and it defines the time frame within which planning activities can occur. If the new scheduled date for the order exceeds this horizon, the error will be triggered.
  Order Rescheduling: When trying to reschedule an order, if the new date is beyond the planning horizon, the system will not allow the change.
  Master Data Settings: The planning horizon can also be influenced by settings in master data, such as the product master or location master.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Adjust the Planning Horizon:
  
  Go to the APO system and navigate to the settings for the planning horizon.
  Increase the planning horizon to include the new scheduled date for the order.
  This can typically be done in the configuration settings under the relevant planning area.
  
  
  
  Change the Order Date:
  
  If adjusting the planning horizon is not feasible, consider changing the new scheduled date of the order to a date that falls within the current planning horizon.
  
  
  
  Check Master Data:
  
  Review the master data settings for the product or location to ensure that the planning horizon is correctly defined and aligned with your business needs.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific steps on how to adjust the planning horizon in your version of SAP APO.
