• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SDP137 - You are not permitted to enter values that are greater than 100% ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SDP137 indicates that you are trying to enter a value that exceeds 100% in a context where it is not allowed. This typically occurs in the context of planning or allocation scenarios within SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), particularly in the Supply Network Planning (SNP) or Demand Planning (DP) modules.
  Cause:
  
  Percentage Values: The error usually arises when you are trying to input a percentage value (e.g., for allocation, capacity, or other planning parameters) that exceeds the maximum limit of 100%.
  Configuration Settings: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict the input values to a maximum of 100%.
  Data Entry Error: It could also be a simple data entry mistake where the user inadvertently inputs a value greater than 100%.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Input Values: Review the values you are trying to enter and ensure that they do not exceed 100%. If you are entering multiple values, ensure that the total does not exceed 100% if they are meant to be cumulative.
  Review Configuration: If you believe the input should allow for values greater than 100%, check the configuration settings in the relevant planning area or master data settings. You may need to consult with your SAP Basis or APO configuration team.
  Adjust Planning Parameters: If you are working with planning parameters that require a percentage input, ensure that the parameters are set correctly and that the values you are entering are appropriate for the context.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on the input values for the transaction or process you are working with.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: The error may occur in various transaction codes related to planning, such as /SAPAPO/SDP94 (for demand planning) or /SAPAPO/SNP94 (for supply network planning).
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this error or provide additional context or solutions.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes in the planning area, as restrictions may also lead to this error.
