  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_ERROR2053 - The order was already deleted ?

    The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_ERROR2053 indicates that an order you are trying to process has already been deleted from the system. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when attempting to perform operations on an order that no longer exists in the database.

    Cause:

    1. Order Deletion: The most straightforward cause is that the order was deleted by a user or through a batch job, and any subsequent attempts to access or modify that order will result in this error.
    2. Data Synchronization Issues: If there are issues with data synchronization between different systems (e.g., between SAP ERP and SAP APO), it may lead to discrepancies where an order appears to exist in one system but has been deleted in another.
    3. Incorrect Order Reference: The order number being referenced may be incorrect or may have been mistyped, leading to an attempt to access a non-existent order.

    Solution:

    1. Verify Order Status: Check the status of the order in the system to confirm whether it has indeed been deleted. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SAPAPO/OM_ORDER or relevant transaction codes in SAP ERP.
    2. Check Logs: Review system logs or change logs to see if there is a record of the order being deleted and by whom. This can help identify if it was an intentional action or an error.
    3. Recreate the Order: If the order was deleted in error and needs to be processed, you may need to recreate the order in the system.
    4. Data Consistency Check: If you suspect data synchronization issues, perform a consistency check between the systems involved (e.g., SAP ERP and SAP APO) to ensure that all relevant data is correctly synchronized.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to this error for any specific guidance or patches that may address the issue.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common errors.
    • User Authorization: Ensure that the user attempting to access or modify the order has the necessary authorizations, as sometimes access issues can lead to misleading error messages.
    • System Configuration: Review the configuration settings in both SAP ERP and SAP APO to ensure that they are set up correctly for order management.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to reach out to your SAP support team or consult with SAP directly for further assistance.
