• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SNPOPT223 - Quota arrangement &1 is redundant ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SNPOPT223 Quota arrangement &1 is redundant typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is a redundancy in the quota arrangements defined for a particular product or location. This means that the system has detected that the quota arrangement you are trying to use is not necessary because it overlaps with another existing arrangement.
  Cause:
  
  
  Redundant Quota Arrangements: The quota arrangement you are trying to create or use is already covered by another arrangement. This can happen if:
  
  Multiple quota arrangements are defined for the same product and location.
  The conditions for the quota arrangements overlap, making one of them unnecessary.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue where the quota arrangements are not set up correctly, leading to overlaps.
  
  
  Data Inconsistencies: There might be inconsistencies in the master data or configuration that lead to the system identifying a quota arrangement as redundant.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Quota Arrangements: Check the existing quota arrangements for the product and location in question. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP APO (e.g., /SAPAPO/QUOTA or similar) and reviewing the defined arrangements.
  
  
  Remove Redundant Arrangements: If you find that there are indeed overlapping quota arrangements, you can either:
  
  Delete the redundant arrangement.
  Modify the existing arrangements to ensure they do not overlap.
  
  
  
  Adjust Conditions: If the arrangements are meant to coexist, ensure that their conditions (like validity periods, quantities, etc.) are set up correctly to avoid redundancy.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on setting up quota arrangements correctly.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error does not occur again.
