How To Fix EL224 - This value is not permissible: each time slice must be closed

EL224 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: EL - IS-U meter reading data processing

• Message number: 224

• Message text: This value is not permissible: each time slice must be closed

What causes this issue?

A register can be installed in several installations that in turn can
be in different meter reading units with different base periods.
Several base periods categories - and therefore several base periods -
can be allocated to one register. The length of the base period is very
important for calculating expected values because different base
periods may also have different weighting totals, yielding different
forecast values. The period consumption entered would also yield
different forecast values, depending on the base period that you
define.
A register must have the same expected consumption, even if it has
different base periods. You must always specify the period in which
period consumption is valid. Period consumption is no longer based on
the base period of the meter reading unit, but defined for each
register for a certain period.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Specify the period and define period consumption accordingly.

EL224 - Details

• The SAP error message EL224 ("This value is not permissible: each time slice must be closed") typically occurs in the context of SAP's Event Management or similar modules where time slices are used to manage and track events or processes over specific periods.
  
  Cause:
  The error indicates that there is an issue with the time slice configuration or data entry. Specifically, it suggests that the time slice you are trying to work with is not properly closed, meaning that the data for that time period has not been finalized or completed. This can happen due to:
  
  Incomplete Data Entry: The required data for the time slice has not been fully entered or saved.
  Open Time Slice: The time slice is still open for modifications, and the system does not allow further changes until it is closed.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be settings in the system that dictate how time slices are managed, and these may
