• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD619 - Order was created with other PPM type (&1). Changing not possible ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/PROD619 indicates that an order was created with a different Production Process Model (PPM) type than the one currently being used or attempted to be changed. This typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) in SAP, particularly when dealing with production orders and planning.
  Cause:
  
  Different PPM Type: The order was created using a specific PPM type, and any attempt to change it to a different PPM type is not allowed. Each PPM type may have different characteristics, parameters, or configurations that are not compatible with each other.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict changes to orders based on the PPM type.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that production orders are not inadvertently altered in a way that could lead to inconsistencies in planning or execution.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check PPM Type: Verify the PPM type associated with the order. You can do this by checking the order details in the system. If you need to change the order, ensure that you are using the correct PPM type that matches the original order.
  Create a New Order: If you need to use a different PPM type, consider creating a new order with the desired PPM type instead of trying to change the existing one.
  Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific PPM types you are working with to understand their differences and limitations.
  System Configuration: If you believe the configuration is incorrect or needs adjustment, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to review the settings related to PPM types and order management.
  Error Handling: If this error occurs frequently, consider implementing error handling procedures or user training to minimize the chances of creating orders with incompatible PPM types.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as /SAPAPO/ORDR for order management and /SAPAPO/PPM for managing production process models.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that users have the appropriate roles and authorizations to create and modify orders, as restrictions may lead to errors.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or your internal SAP team for further investigation.
