  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/TSM252 InfoObject & does not exist typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when the system is unable to find a specific InfoObject that is referenced in a planning function, data source, or other configuration settings.
  Cause:
  
  Missing InfoObject: The specified InfoObject may not exist in the system. This could be due to it not being created, being deleted, or being incorrectly referenced.
  Incorrect Configuration: The InfoObject might be incorrectly configured in the planning area or in the planning function.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoObject was recently transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly or may not exist in the target system.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check InfoObject Existence:
