  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/RRP_PT155 - Several different time units were specified for resource & ?

    The SAP error message /SAPAPO/RRP_PT155 indicates that there is a mismatch in the time units specified for a resource in the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. This typically occurs when different time units are used in the planning process, which can lead to inconsistencies and errors in resource allocation and scheduling.

    Cause:

    1. Inconsistent Time Units: The error usually arises when a resource is defined with one time unit (e.g., hours) while the planning object (like a production order or a planned order) is defined with another time unit (e.g., days).
    2. Resource Configuration: The resource may have been configured with a specific time unit that does not match the time unit used in the planning scenario.
    3. Master Data Issues: There may be discrepancies in the master data settings for the resource, such as the production version or the resource itself.

    Solution:

    1. Check Resource Configuration:

      • Go to the resource master data in the APO system and verify the time unit settings. Ensure that the time unit for the resource matches the time unit used in the planning object.
      • You can access the resource master data through transaction code /SAPAPO/RRP1 or similar.
    2. Review Planning Object Settings:

      • Check the planning object (e.g., production order, planned order) to ensure that the time unit is consistent with the resource's time unit.
      • Make adjustments as necessary to align the time units.
    3. Adjust Master Data:

      • If there are discrepancies in the master data, update the relevant settings to ensure consistency across all related objects.
      • This may involve changing the time unit in the resource master or adjusting the time unit in the production version.
    4. Re-run Planning:

      • After making the necessary adjustments, re-run the planning process to see if the error persists.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring resources and time units in APO.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as /SAPAPO/RRP1 for resource planning and /SAPAPO/SDP94 for demand planning.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional insights or patches that may address the issue.
    • User Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or user groups for shared experiences and solutions from other users who may have encountered the same error.

    By ensuring that all time units are consistent across resources and planning objects, you can resolve the error and proceed with your planning activities in SAP APO.
