• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/TS_RLG_CPY004 - Formal parameter IV_PLOBID has to be specified for realignment ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/TS_RLG_CPY004 indicates that a required formal parameter, IV_PLOBID, has not been specified during a realignment process in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO). This error typically occurs when you are trying to execute a function or transaction that requires a specific parameter related to the planning object.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of the IV_PLOBID parameter, which is necessary for the realignment process. This parameter usually represents the Planning Object ID (PLOBID) that identifies the specific planning object you are working with. If this parameter is not provided, the system cannot proceed with the realignment operation.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should ensure that the IV_PLOBID parameter is correctly specified in the function call or transaction you are executing. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Check the Function Module/Transaction: Identify the function module or transaction that is generating the error. Review the documentation or the interface to understand the required parameters.
  
  
  Provide the Missing Parameter: Ensure that you are passing the IV_PLOBID parameter with a valid value. This value should correspond to an existing planning object in your system.
  
  
  Debugging: If you are developing or customizing a program, you may want to debug the code to see where the parameter is being set and why it is missing. Look for any conditional logic that might prevent the parameter from being assigned.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for the specific function or transaction to understand the context of the IV_PLOBID parameter and how to correctly use it.
  
  
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the planning object and perform the realignment.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is a recurring problem or if you suspect a bug.
