• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EPRO007 - Define season group &1 without overlaps ?

  The SAP error message EPRO007, which states "Define season group &1 without overlaps," typically occurs in the context of managing seasonal products or collections in SAP, particularly in the SAP Fashion Management (FMS) or SAP Apparel and Footwear (AFS) modules. This error indicates that there are overlapping date ranges defined for the specified season group.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the following scenarios:
  
  Overlapping Date Ranges: The season group you are trying to define has date ranges that overlap with existing season groups. For example, if you have a summer season defined from June 1 to August 31, and you try to define another summer season from July 1 to September 30, this will create an overlap.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the season group settings, leading to unintended overlaps.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the EPRO007 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Season Groups:
  
  Navigate to the transaction or configuration area where season groups are defined (usually in the SAP FMS or AFS module).
  Review the existing season groups and their date ranges to identify any overlaps.
  
  
  
  Adjust Date Ranges:
  
  Modify the date ranges of the season groups to ensure that there are no overlaps. Each season group should have a unique and non-overlapping date range.
  If necessary, create new season groups with distinct date ranges that do not conflict with existing ones.
  
  
  
  Delete or Archive Old Season Groups:
  
  If certain season groups are no longer needed, consider deleting or archiving them to prevent future overlaps.
  
  
  
  Validation:
  
  After making changes, validate the configuration to ensure that the error no longer appears. You can do this by attempting to save or activate the season group again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files related to the Fashion Management or Apparel and Footwear modules for detailed guidance on managing season groups.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who specializes in the FMS or AFS modules.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the EPRO007 error and successfully define your season groups without overlaps.
