• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC117 - No change tolerance violation (operative schedule will not be created) ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC117 No change tolerance violation (operative schedule will not be created) typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is a violation of the change tolerance settings during the planning process. This error indicates that the changes made to the planning data exceed the allowed limits defined in the system, preventing the creation of an operative schedule.
  Cause:
  
  Change Tolerance Settings: The system has defined thresholds for how much change is acceptable in the planning data (e.g., demand, supply, etc.). If the changes exceed these thresholds, the system will not allow the creation of an operative schedule.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data that lead to significant changes in the planning results.
  Planning Version: The planning version being used may have settings that are too restrictive.
  Master Data Issues: Problems with master data (e.g., product master, location master) can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Change Tolerance Settings: Check the change tolerance settings in the system. You can adjust these settings to allow for greater flexibility in the changes that can be made without triggering the error.
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration in SAP APO (usually under the planning area settings).
  
  
  Analyze Planning Data: Review the planning data to identify any significant changes that may be causing the violation. Look for large fluctuations in demand or supply that exceed the defined tolerances.
  Check Master Data: Ensure that all relevant master data is accurate and up-to-date. Correct any inconsistencies that may be affecting the planning process.
  Use a Different Planning Version: If the current planning version has strict settings, consider using a different version with more lenient change tolerances for testing purposes.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing change tolerances and resolving related issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SAPAPO/SDP94 (for planning book) or /SAPAPO/MC90 (for change tolerance settings) to access relevant settings and data.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on configuration.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to allow the creation of the operative schedule.
