How To Fix GA831 - Cycle updated in all current execution periods

GA831 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 831

• Message text: Cycle updated in all current execution periods

What causes this issue?

You execute cycle &V1&, starting date &V2& in test run. However, the
cycle is current in the system in all execution periods (period &V3& to
&V4&) so that this test run will have differences compared to a
production run.
For example, all senders in the cycle, which are to allocate posted
values or quantities to 100 percent are actually credited completely
and are therefore not included in further processing (refer to further
messages in this log).
Analogously, the tracing factor values determined in the test run can
differ from those in production run (for the receiver rule "variable
portions", "actual costs or planned costs" and a cost element posted by
the cycle).
