  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC136 - ?

    SAP Error Message: WRF_APC136


    1. Cause of the Error

    The error message WRF_APC136 typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), specifically within the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS) or Supply Network Planning (SNP) modules.

    Meaning:
    The message usually indicates that a certain resource or capacity is overbooked or that a planned order or production order cannot be created or confirmed due to capacity constraints.

    Typical cause:

    • The system detects that the available capacity of a resource (machine, work center, production line) is insufficient to accommodate the planned load.
    • The capacity check during order creation or confirmation fails because the load exceeds the available capacity.
    • It can also occur if the capacity data is missing, incorrect, or not maintained properly.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the WRF_APC136 error, consider the following steps:

    • Check Capacity Data:

      • Verify that the capacity data for the resource is correctly maintained in the system.
      • Ensure that the available capacity is realistic and updated.
    • Adjust Capacity or Load:

      • Increase the available capacity for the resource if possible (e.g., add shifts, increase working hours).
      • Reduce the load by rescheduling or redistributing planned orders to other resources or time periods.
    • Check Planning Parameters:

      • Review the planning parameters and heuristics used in APO to ensure they are set correctly.
      • Adjust the planning horizon or bucket size if necessary.
    • Use Capacity Leveling:

      • Run capacity leveling or rough-cut capacity planning to balance the load across resources.
    • Check Integration and Master Data:

      • Ensure that master data such as work centers, resources, and capacity categories are correctly maintained.
      • Verify that the integration between SAP ERP and APO is consistent.
    • Debugging and Logs:

      • If the error persists, check the detailed logs or debug the planning run to identify the exact cause.
