• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FM301 - Dunning run & & is still planned; deletion not possible ?

  The SAP error message FM301 ("Dunning run & & is still planned; deletion not possible") typically occurs when you attempt to delete a dunning run that is still in a planned state. This means that the dunning run has not yet been executed, and the system is preventing you from deleting it to maintain data integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Dunning Run Status: The dunning run you are trying to delete is still in a planned status. This status indicates that the dunning run has been scheduled but not yet executed.
  System Lock: The system may have a lock on the dunning run, preventing any modifications until it is either executed or explicitly canceled.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Dunning Run Status:
  
  Navigate to the dunning run management transaction (usually transaction code F150).
  Check the status of the dunning run you are trying to delete. If it is still in the "planned" state, you will need to either execute it or cancel it.
  
  
  
  Execute the Dunning Run:
  
  If you want to proceed with the dunning process, execute the dunning run. This will change its status from "planned" to "executed".
  After execution, if you still want to delete it, you can do so.
  
  
  
  Cancel the Dunning Run:
  
  If you do not want to execute the dunning run, you can cancel it. Look for an option to cancel or delete the planned dunning run in the dunning run management screen.
  This option may vary based on your SAP version and configuration.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  If the dunning run is locked for some reason, you may need to check for any active sessions or processes that might be holding a lock on it. You can use transaction SM12 to view and manage locks.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the steps or the implications of executing or canceling a dunning run, consult your SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for guidance.
