• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_ACDOC_PLANNING077 - Aggregation level contains AUFPS. Please add compound field AUFNR. ?

  The SAP error message FINS_ACDOC_PLANNING077 indicates that there is an issue with the aggregation level in the planning function you are trying to execute. Specifically, it mentions that the aggregation level contains the field AUFPS (which is related to the order item) but does not include the compound field AUFNR (which is the order number). This is a common issue when working with planning functions in SAP, particularly in the context of Financials and Controlling (FICO).
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the aggregation level defined for the planning function is not complete. In SAP, when you are working with planning functions that involve order-related data, the system requires that both the order number (AUFNR) and the order item (AUFPS) be included in the aggregation level. If AUFPS is present without AUFNR, the system cannot properly aggregate the data, leading to this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to modify the aggregation level of the planning function to include the compound field AUFNR. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Planning Function:
  
  Go to the SAP Easy Access screen and navigate to the planning function you are working with. This is typically found under the SAP Easy Access Menu > Logistics > Controlling > Product Cost Planning > Planning > Planning Functions.
  
  
  
  Edit the Aggregation Level:
  
  Find the aggregation level associated with the planning function that is causing the error.
  Open the aggregation level for editing.
  
  
  
  Add the Compound Field:
  
  In the aggregation level definition, ensure that both AUFNR (Order Number) and AUFPS (Order Item) are included in the list of fields.
  If AUFNR is not present, add it to the aggregation level.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save the aggregation level.
  
  
  
  Test the Planning Function:
  
  Execute the planning function again to verify that the error has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Understanding Aggregation Levels: Aggregation levels are used in SAP planning to define how data is grouped and summarized. It is crucial to include all necessary fields to avoid errors during planning execution.
  Compound Fields: In SAP, compound fields are fields that are dependent on other fields. For example, AUFPS is dependent on AUFNR, and both need to be present for proper data aggregation.
  SAP Documentation: For more detailed information, refer to the SAP Help Portal or specific documentation related to your version of SAP, as the steps may vary slightly depending on the system configuration.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after making these changes, consider consulting with your SAP Basis or FICO team for further assistance.
