/SAPAPO/OPT_DPS_PRIO022 - Details

• The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OPT_DPS_PRIO022 No increasing variable mode costs typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), particularly when dealing with planning scenarios that involve variable costs for different modes of transportation or production.
  
  Cause:
  This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid solution for the optimization problem because there are no increasing variable costs defined for the modes being considered. In other words, the system expects that as the quantity of a resource (like transportation or production) increases, the cost associated with that resource should also increase. If the costs are not defined in such a way, the optimizer cannot determine a feasible solution.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Mode Costs Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the configuration settings for the modes of transportation or production in your APO system.
  Ensure that the variable costs for each mode are defined correctly and
