Hu Subhash,
of course, i give you more information.
to 1. All setups (products, location, ressource, etc...) are created in APO.
to 2: Yes. I maintian the values "Predesccr", "Successor", "Setup Time" , "Unit", "Setup Costs" and "Plan".
If I want to fill the plan, I use the F4 - Selektion. And I see the PPM in this Selektion. Than I chosse my PPM and want to save, but than the error message exists.
A further information is, that the optimizer use this PPM for my product. I see it in the details in the interactive planning book. Of that reason, I think the PPM is correct.
Regards
Oliver
