• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/RRP_BO013 - Planned independent requirement created ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/RRP_BO013 indicates that a Planned Independent Requirement (PIR) has been created in the system. This message is typically informational rather than an error, and it is part of the process of managing demand planning in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO).
  Cause:
  The message is triggered when a Planned Independent Requirement is generated for a product in the system. This can occur due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Demand Planning Activities: When demand planning activities are executed, such as running a forecast or creating a demand plan.
  Manual Entry: A user manually creates a Planned Independent Requirement in the system.
  Integration with Other Modules: Data from other modules (like SAP ERP) may lead to the creation of PIRs in APO.
  
  Solution:
  Since this message is informational, there is typically no direct action required unless it is part of a larger issue. However, if you are looking to manage or troubleshoot the creation of Planned Independent Requirements, consider the following steps:
  
  Review the Demand Plan: Check the demand plan to ensure that the PIRs are created as expected and that the values align with your planning strategy.
  Check Configuration: Ensure that the configuration for demand planning and the creation of PIRs is set up correctly in your SAP APO system.
  Analyze the Source: If the PIRs are being created unexpectedly, analyze the source of the data (e.g., forecast models, historical data) to understand why the requirements are being generated.
  Monitor Changes: If there are frequent changes in the PIRs, monitor the changes to understand the underlying reasons, which could be due to changes in market demand or business strategy.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/SDP94 (for demand planning) to view and analyze the Planned Independent Requirements.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on demand planning and the management of Planned Independent Requirements.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to PIRs or provide enhancements to the functionality.
