How To Fix GP807 - Caution: No plan line items are written when copying

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

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

• Message number: 807

• Message text: Caution: No plan line items are written when copying

What causes this issue?

For technical reasons, no lone items are written when plan data is
copied, even though the <LS>Write Line Items</> indicator is activated
in Customizing in the fiscal year-dependent version parameters for the
relevant combination of ledger, version, company code, and fiscal year.
In some circumstances, this can mean that, after plan data has been
copied, the totals records no longer match the line items.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check whether you really want to perform this function or whether you
can cancel it.
If inconsistencies have already arisen between totals records and line
items as a result of line items not having been updated when plan data
was copied, you can delete such inconsistencies as follows:
By (temporarily) deleting the relevant combination (ledger, version,
company code, and fiscal year) from the <LS>Fiscal Year-Dependent
Version Parameters</> view.
By re-including the same entry in the fiscal year-dependent version
parameters (consequently, the <LS>Write Line Items</> indicator is
deselected).
By using transaction GLDE (new General Ledger Accounting) or transaction
GCDE (Special Purpose Ledger) to delete the plan line items (and not the
totals records!).
By activating the line items for planning the MIT update of the opening
balance.
As a result, the totals match the line items.
<ZH>General Information on Using the </><LS><ZH>Copy Model Plan</></>
<ZH> Function</>
The <LS>Copy Model Plan</> function is usually performed once per fiscal
year at the start of the planning process and is used to produce an
initial plan data basis (for example, using the plan data from the prior
year).
This plan data basis can now be used with the actual planning
transactions to enter the final plan data.
Consequently, it is not useful to copy plan data if (manually) planned
data already exists.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GP807 - Caution: No plan line items are written when copying ?

  The SAP error message GP807 ("Caution: No plan line items are written when copying") typically occurs in the context of planning and budgeting processes within SAP, particularly when using the SAP Controlling (CO) module or the SAP Project System (PS) module. This message indicates that the system did not create any plan line items during a copying operation, which can be concerning as it suggests that the expected data transfer did not occur.
  Causes:
  
  
  No Source Data: The source from which you are trying to copy may not have any relevant plan line items. If the source document or plan does not contain any data, the system will not generate any line items in the target document.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the copying process may not be set up correctly. This could include settings related to the planning version, planning layout, or the specific copying rules.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to read the source data or to create entries in the target document.
  
  
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies or errors in the data that prevent the system from copying the line items.
  
  
  Filters Applied: If there are filters applied during the copying process, they may be excluding all relevant line items.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Source Data: Verify that the source document or plan contains the expected line items. If there are no line items, you will need to create them before attempting to copy.
