  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OO_TR078 indicates that there is an issue with the validity periods of a product and its associated means of transportation in the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. Specifically, it means that the validity periods for the product and the transportation means do not overlap, which is necessary for the system to process transportation planning correctly.
