  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_ERROR2441 indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of resources within the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module, specifically related to the Resource Planning Module (RPM). This error occurs when the same resource is defined for two different subrows of a Product-Order-Stock (POSVAR) in the planning book.
  Cause:
  The error is typically caused by one of the following issues:
  
  Duplicate Resource Assignment: The same resource has been assigned to multiple subrows within a single planning book or within the same planning object structure.
  Configuration Error: There may be a misconfiguration in the planning book or the data model that leads to the same resource being referenced multiple times.
  Data Integrity Issues: There could be inconsistencies in the data that have led to the same resource being assigned to different subrows.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

  If you find that the same resource is indeed assigned to multiple subrows, you will need to modify the planning book configuration to ensure that each resource is uniquely assigned to a single subrow.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Perform a consistency check on the data in the planning book to identify any other potential issues that may be causing the error.
  Use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/TS (for planning book) or /SAPAPO/OM (for order management) to analyze and correct any inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific planning book and resource configuration to ensure compliance with best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
