  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CJ711 - You cannot create another WBS element for project definition & ?

    The SAP error message CJ711 indicates that you cannot create another Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) element for a specific project definition. This typically occurs when the project definition has reached its limit for the number of WBS elements that can be created under it.

    Cause:

    1. Limit Reached: Each project definition in SAP has a predefined limit on the number of WBS elements that can be created. If this limit is reached, you will encounter this error.
    2. Project Structure: The project structure may be designed in such a way that it does not allow for additional WBS elements.
    3. Configuration Settings: The system configuration may impose restrictions on the number of WBS elements allowed for a project.

    Solution:

    1. Check Existing WBS Elements: Review the existing WBS elements under the project definition to confirm if the limit has been reached.
    2. Delete Unused WBS Elements: If there are any WBS elements that are no longer needed, consider deleting them to free up space for new ones.
    3. Review Project Structure: If the project structure allows for it, consider restructuring the project to accommodate additional WBS elements.
    4. Consult Configuration Settings: If you have access to the configuration settings, check if the limit for WBS elements can be increased. This may require assistance from a system administrator or SAP consultant.
    5. Create a New Project Definition: If the project definition is full and cannot be modified, consider creating a new project definition and structuring it to accommodate the additional WBS elements.
