We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Unfortunately this is an issue with the MAPDL UI in 2021 R2 - please use the F or FK command instead to apply load:
(/forum/discussion/32266/need-information)

so:
F,ALL,FX,1

applies a nodal load to all selected nodes in the x direction of 1 N.

or FK,1,FX,1

applies a load to keypoint 1 in the x direction of 1 N.
All the best
