• Message class: GP - FI-SL and CO planning

• Message number: 412

• Message text: Period interval does not correspond to planning period

How can this happen?

You want to perform cumulative quarterly planning, and enter the
following values for this:
From period...... 1
To period........ 12
Period frequency. 3
The system now calculates the planning periods as follows:
1st period = 1, 2nd period = 1 + 3 = 4, 3rd period = 1 + 3 + 3 = 7,
4th period = 1 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 10 and 5th period = 1 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 13
However, the 5th period is greater than 12, and the system returns this
error message.
To proceed correctly, enter the following values:
From period...... 1 From period...... 3
To period........ 10 or To period........ 12
Period frequency. 3 Period frequency. 3

How to fix this error?
