• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCMB_BAPI076 - Multiple entries are only possible for dimensionless capacities ?

  The SAP error message SCMB_BAPI076, which states "Multiple entries are only possible for dimensionless capacities," typically occurs in the context of SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when working with capacity planning or resource management. This error indicates that the system is expecting a single entry for a capacity that is not dimensioned (i.e., it does not have units of measure associated with it), but multiple entries have been provided.
  Cause:
  
  
  Multiple Entries for Dimensionless Capacities: The error arises when you attempt to input multiple capacity entries for a resource that is defined as dimensionless. In SAP, dimensionless capacities are typically used for resources that do not have a specific unit of measure, such as certain types of production resources or capacities that are abstract in nature.
  
  
  Incorrect Data Input: The data being sent to the BAPI (Business Application Programming Interface) may contain multiple entries for a capacity that should only have a single entry.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be a configuration issue in the system where the resource or capacity is incorrectly set up to allow multiple entries when it should not.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Input Data: Check the data being sent to the BAPI. Ensure that you are not sending multiple entries for dimensionless capacities. If you need to send multiple capacities, ensure that they are dimensioned (i.e., have units of measure).
  
  
  Adjust Capacity Configuration: If the resource is supposed to allow multiple entries, consider reviewing the configuration of the resource in the SAP system. You may need to adjust the settings to allow for dimensioned capacities or change the resource type.
  
  
  Use Correct BAPI: Ensure that you are using the correct BAPI for the operation you are trying to perform. If the BAPI you are using is not intended for dimensionless capacities, you may need to find an alternative.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific BAPI you are using to understand its requirements and limitations regarding capacity entries.
  
  
  Testing: After making adjustments, test the changes in a development or test environment before applying them to production to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAPI Documentation: Check the SAP Help Portal or the specific BAPI documentation for details on the expected input parameters and their constraints.
  SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on handling dimensionless capacities.
  Community Forums: Consider reaching out to SAP community forums or support channels for additional insights or similar experiences from other users.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the SCMB_BAPI076 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
