• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/TDL_DAO111 - ODS object type is not "transactional" ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/TDL_DAO111 ODS object type is not "transactional" typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when working with data transfer processes involving ODS (Operational Data Store) objects. This error indicates that the ODS object you are trying to use is not configured as a transactional ODS object, which is required for certain operations in APO.
  Cause:
  
  ODS Object Type: The ODS object you are trying to access is not defined as a transactional ODS object. In SAP, ODS objects can be defined as either transactional or non-transactional. Transactional ODS objects are designed to handle transactional data, while non-transactional ODS objects are used for reporting purposes.
  Data Transfer Process: The data transfer process (DTP) you are using may require a transactional ODS object, but the one specified is not set up correctly.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the SAP system that prevent the ODS object from being recognized as transactional.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check ODS Object Configuration:
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  Navigate to the ODS object in question and check its properties.
  Ensure that the ODS object is defined as a transactional ODS object. If it is not, you may need to create a new transactional ODS object or modify the existing one if possible.
  
  
  
  Modify Data Transfer Process:
  
  If the ODS object cannot be changed to transactional, consider modifying the data transfer process to use a different ODS object that is transactional.
  
  
  
  Recreate ODS Object:
  
  If necessary, you may need to recreate the ODS object as a transactional ODS object. This involves defining the object again with the correct settings.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to ODS objects and APO to ensure that you are following best practices for configuration.
  
  
  
  Check for SAP Notes:
  
  Look for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance on how to resolve it.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transactional vs. Non-Transactional ODS: Understanding the difference between these two types of ODS objects is crucial. Transactional ODS objects are used for storing detailed transactional data, while non-transactional ODS objects are typically used for aggregated or summarized data.
  SAP APO: Familiarize yourself with the functionalities of SAP APO, especially in the context of data modeling and data transfer processes.
  Data Modeling: Ensure that your data modeling practices align with the requirements of your business processes and reporting needs.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or APO support team for further assistance.
