• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/ORDER_SPLIT054 - Partial order exceeds the maximum product lot size of &1 &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/ORDER_SPLIT054 indicates that a partial order exceeds the maximum product lot size defined in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when trying to split an order, and the resulting quantity exceeds the allowed lot size for the product.
  Cause:
  
  Lot Size Configuration: The maximum lot size for the product is set in the material master or in the APO settings. If the quantity of the order being processed exceeds this maximum lot size, the error will be triggered.
  Order Splitting Logic: The logic used for splitting orders may not be taking into account the maximum lot size, leading to attempts to create a partial order that is not permissible.
  Product Settings: The product may have specific settings that restrict the quantity that can be processed in a single order or split.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Lot Size Settings:
  
  Go to the material master (transaction MM03) and check the lot size settings for the relevant product. Look for the maximum lot size defined in the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) view.
  If necessary, adjust the maximum lot size to accommodate the order quantities you are working with.
  
  
  
  Adjust Order Quantity:
  
  If the order quantity can be adjusted, consider modifying the order to ensure that it does not exceed the maximum lot size.
  
  
  
  Review Order Splitting Logic:
  
  If you are using custom logic for order splitting, review the implementation to ensure it respects the maximum lot size constraints.
  You may need to modify the logic to handle cases where the order quantity exceeds the maximum lot size.
  
  
  
  Consult with a SAP Consultant:
  
  If you are unsure about making changes to the configuration or if the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with a SAP consultant or your internal SAP support team for further assistance.
