• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC213 - Does ATP check take releases and not the confirmations into account? ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SRC213 typically relates to the Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module in SAP, specifically concerning the Available-to-Promise (ATP) check. This error indicates that the ATP check is considering releases (planned orders or production orders) rather than confirmations (actual stock or confirmed orders) when determining availability.
  Cause:
  
  ATP Configuration: The ATP check may be configured to prioritize planned orders or releases over confirmed stock. This can happen if the settings in the APO system are not aligned with the business requirements.
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data, such as incorrect settings in the product master or location master that affect how ATP checks are performed.
  Order Types: The order types being used may not be set up correctly to reflect the desired behavior during the ATP check.
  Planning Strategy: The planning strategy assigned to the product may not be suitable for the type of ATP check being performed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review ATP Configuration: Check the configuration settings for ATP in the APO system. Ensure that the ATP check is set up to consider confirmations appropriately. This may involve adjusting the settings in the configuration for the ATP check.
  Adjust Master Data: Verify the product master and location master data to ensure that they are set up correctly. Pay attention to the settings related to stock types and availability checks.
  Check Order Types: Review the order types being used in the ATP check. Ensure that they are configured to consider confirmations as expected.
  Planning Strategy Review: Evaluate the planning strategy assigned to the product. If necessary, change the planning strategy to one that aligns better with the desired ATP behavior.
  Testing: After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the ATP check now considers confirmations as intended.
  
  Related Information:
  
  ATP Check Types: Understand the different types of ATP checks available in SAP, such as backward and forward checks, and how they interact with releases and confirmations.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on configuring ATP checks.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on ATP configuration and best practices.
  User Exits and BAdIs: If standard configurations do not meet your requirements, consider implementing user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to customize the ATP check behavior.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP expert or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
