• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD313 - Sequence-dependent setup in operation &1 not on single activity resource ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD313 indicates that there is a sequence-dependent setup requirement in a production order or process that cannot be fulfilled because the operation is not assigned to a single activity resource. This typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) in SAP, particularly when dealing with production planning and scheduling.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Resources: The operation in question is assigned to multiple resources instead of a single activity resource. Sequence-dependent setups require that the operation be executed on a specific resource that can handle the setup requirements.
  Resource Configuration: The resource configuration may not be set up to handle sequence-dependent setups properly.
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data configuration, such as the resource or production version not being correctly defined to support sequence-dependent setups.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Resource Assignment: Ensure that the operation is assigned to a single activity resource that can handle the sequence-dependent setup. You may need to adjust the resource assignment in the production order or the routing.
  Review Resource Configuration: Verify the configuration of the resources in the system. Ensure that the resource is defined to support sequence-dependent setups and that the necessary setup times and sequences are correctly defined.
  Adjust Master Data: Review the master data for the production version, routing, and resources. Make sure that the sequence-dependent setup requirements are correctly defined in the routing and that the resources are properly configured.
  Use Alternative Resources: If the current resource cannot be used for the operation due to its configuration, consider using an alternative resource that meets the requirements for sequence-dependent setups.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring sequence-dependent setups and resources.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on configuration.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes such as C223 (Change Routing) and C201 (Create Production Order) to review and adjust the relevant configurations.
  APO Configuration: Ensure that the APO system is properly configured for production planning, including settings for sequence-dependent setups.
  Training and Support: If necessary, seek assistance from SAP support or consult with a professional who specializes in SAP APO to resolve complex issues related to production planning.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
