• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/PCM131 - Order status prohibits splitting of production campaign ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/PCM131 indicates that the order status of a production campaign prohibits the splitting of that campaign. This typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) within SAP, particularly when dealing with production orders or campaigns that are not allowed to be split due to their current status.
  Cause:
  
  Order Status: The production campaign or order is in a status that does not allow splitting. For example, if the order is already in production or has been confirmed, it may not be eligible for splitting.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to prevent splitting for certain types of orders or campaigns based on business rules or settings in the configuration.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies or linked orders that prevent the splitting of the campaign.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Order Status: Review the status of the production campaign. If it is in a status that prohibits splitting (e.g., confirmed, completed), you may need to change the status or create a new campaign/order.
  Adjust Configuration: If the splitting is a necessary part of your process, consider reviewing the configuration settings in the APO system to allow splitting for the relevant order types.
  Manual Intervention: If the order cannot be split due to its current status, you may need to manually intervene by either completing the order or creating a new order that can accommodate the required changes.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific configurations and settings that may be affecting the ability to split the campaign.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on handling order statuses and splitting.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP APO that can help you monitor and manage production campaigns and orders (e.g., /SAPAPO/MC90 for campaign management).
  User Exits and BAdIs: If your organization has custom logic implemented, check for any user exits or BAdIs that may affect the behavior of order splitting.
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP APO for further assistance.
