• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message -5013 - The active plan version is &, but the entry is & ?

  The SAP error message -5013 typically indicates a mismatch between the active plan version and the version of the entry you are trying to process. This error often occurs in the context of planning and budgeting within SAP, particularly in modules like SAP Controlling (CO) or SAP Project System (PS).
  Cause:
  
  Version Mismatch: The active plan version in the system is different from the version of the data entry you are trying to access or modify. For example, if the active version is "001" but the entry you are trying to work with is "002", this error will occur.
  Data Locking: Sometimes, if the data is being processed or locked by another user or transaction, it may lead to this error.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the planning area or version settings can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Plan Version: Verify which plan version is currently active in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant planning transaction and checking the version settings.
  Change the Version: If you need to work with a specific version, ensure that you switch to that version in your planning transaction. This can usually be done in the selection screen of the planning transaction.
  Data Consistency: Ensure that the data you are trying to enter or modify is consistent with the active plan version. If necessary, update the data to match the active version.
  Unlock Data: If the data is locked, check if another user is currently working on it. You may need to wait until they finish or contact them to resolve the locking issue.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to planning versions for more specific guidance on handling version-related issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KP06 (Cost Center Planning), CJ20N (Project Planning), or others depending on your specific module.
