  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC835: Enter planned quantities for key figure &1 to determine assortment ratio
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), specifically in the Demand Planning or Supply Network Planning modules, when the system tries to calculate the assortment ratio but does not find the required planned quantities for a particular key figure.
  
  The key figure (represented by &1 in the message) is typically a planned quantity or forecast value that is necessary for the system to compute the assortment ratio.
  The assortment ratio is used to distribute quantities across different products or locations based on planned quantities.
  If the planned quantities for the key figure are missing or zero, the system cannot perform the calculation, hence the error.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During planning runs or calculations involving assortment planning.
  When the system expects planned quantities for a key figure but they have not been maintained or loaded.
  Possibly during the execution of macros, planning books, or data transfer processes where key figures are involved.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Planned Quantities:
  
  Verify that planned quantities exist for the key figure mentioned in the error message.
  Use transaction /SAPAPO/SDP94 (Planning Book) or /SAPAPO/SDP6 (Demand Planning) to check if the planned quantities are maintained for the relevant product/location/time period.
  
  
  
  Maintain or Load Planned Quantities:
  
  If planned quantities are missing, enter or upload the required data.
  This can be done manually or via data transfer from ECC or other source systems.
  
  
  
  Review Key Figure Settings:
  
  Check the key figure configuration in the planning book or planning area.
  Ensure that the key figure is correctly defined and assigned.
  
  
  
  Check Assortment Ratio Calculation Logic:
  
  Review any macros, formulas, or planning sequences that calculate the assortment ratio.
  Make sure they reference the correct key figures and that these key figures have data.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Run consistency checks on planning data to ensure no data gaps exist.
  
  
  
  Re-run Planning:
  
  After correcting the data, re-run the planning or calculation process.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  
  Assortment Ratio:
  
  It is a ratio used in planning to allocate quantities proportionally across different products or locations based on planned quantities.
  
  
  Key Figures:
  
  In SAP APO, key figures represent measurable data such as forecast quantities, planned orders, or sales quantities.
  
  
  Common Transactions to Check Data:
  
  /SAPAPO/SDP94 - Planning Book
  /SAPAPO/SDP6 - Demand Planning
  /SAPAPO/MC90 - Interactive Planning
  
  
  
  Related Notes and Documentation:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to planning key figures and assortment ratio calculations.
  Review APO planning area and key figure setup guides.
  
  
  
  
  If you provide the exact key figure name or context (e.g., Demand Planning, Supply Network Planning), I can help with more specific steps.
