• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD319 - Setup activity in operatn &: Secondary res. should not have setup matrix ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD319 indicates that there is an issue with the setup activity configuration in the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module, specifically related to the use of a secondary resource in a production operation. The error message states that a secondary resource should not have a setup matrix defined.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The secondary resource in the operation has been assigned a setup matrix, which is not allowed. In SAP APO, setup matrices are generally used for primary resources to define setup times and costs based on the combination of products being produced.
  
  
  Resource Type Misconfiguration: The resource type may not be correctly defined, leading to the system expecting a setup matrix where it should not be.
  
  
  Master Data Issues: There may be inconsistencies or errors in the master data related to the resources or the production process.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Resource Configuration:
  
  Go to the resource master data in the APO system.
  Verify that the secondary resource does not have a setup matrix assigned. If it does, remove it.
  
  
  
  Review Operation Settings:
  
  Check the production order or the planning object where the error occurred.
  Ensure that the operation is correctly configured to use the appropriate resources.
  
  
  
  Adjust Setup Matrix:
  
  If a setup matrix is mistakenly assigned to a secondary resource, you need to remove it. This can usually be done in the resource master data under the setup matrix tab.
  
  
  
  Validate Master Data:
  
  Ensure that all related master data (materials, resources, production versions) is correctly set up and does not contain conflicting information.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on configuring resources and setup matrices in APO.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the configuration by trying to create or process the production order again to ensure that the error is resolved.
