  The SAP error message FPP053 "Interrupted intervals: &1 (No restart possible)" typically occurs in the context of the SAP Production Planning (PP) module, particularly when dealing with production orders or planning scenarios. This error indicates that there are interrupted intervals in the planning process, which means that the system has detected gaps or issues in the scheduling of production activities that cannot be automatically resolved.
  Cause:
  
  Scheduling Conflicts: There may be overlapping or conflicting production orders that prevent the system from scheduling the current order.
  Resource Availability: The resources (machines, labor, etc.) required for the production process may not be available during the planned intervals.
  Incomplete Data: Missing or incorrect data in the production order or related master data (like BOM, routing, etc.) can lead to scheduling issues.
  Manual Changes: Manual interventions or changes in the production schedule that disrupt the planned intervals can also trigger this error.
  Capacity Constraints: If the capacity of the work center is exceeded, it can lead to interruptions in the scheduling.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Production Orders: Review the production orders involved to identify any conflicts or overlaps. Ensure that the orders are correctly sequenced and scheduled.
  Resource Availability: Verify the availability of resources (machines, tools, labor) for the scheduled intervals. Adjust the schedule if necessary.
  Correct Data: Ensure that all relevant master data (BOM, routing, work center) is complete and accurate. Make any necessary corrections.
  Re-schedule: If manual changes have been made, consider re-scheduling the production order to resolve any conflicts.
  Capacity Planning: Review the capacity planning settings and ensure that the work centers have sufficient capacity to handle the planned production.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes like CO02 (Change Production Order) or CM21 (Capacity Planning) to analyze and adjust the production schedule.
