• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/PPM_TRANSFER113 - Mode &1 found neither in database nor in tables ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/PPM_TRANSFER113 typically indicates that a specific mode (in this case, &1) is not found in the database or in the relevant tables during a process related to the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module, particularly in the context of Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The mode referenced in the error message may not be configured in the system. This could happen if the mode was deleted or never created.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the database or the configuration tables that prevent the system from recognizing the mode.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that resulted in missing entries.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the mode, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: 
  
  Go to the relevant configuration transaction (e.g., /SAPAPO/PPM or similar) and verify if the mode exists. If it does not, you may need to create it.
  Ensure that the mode is correctly defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Database Check:
  
  Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the relevant tables (e.g., /SAPAPO/PPM_MODE) to see if the mode is present.
  If the mode is missing, you may need to recreate it or restore it from a backup.
  
  
  
  Transport Logs:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the mode is missing.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the mode. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.

  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific mode and its configuration to ensure that all necessary steps have been followed.
