• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDP339 - Cannot split contingent; selected contingent lasts for one day only ?

  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDP339 Cannot split contingent; selected contingent lasts for one day only typically occurs in the context of SAP's Flexible Planning (FDP) or similar modules where contingent planning is involved. This error indicates that the system is unable to split a contingent (a planned quantity or resource) because the selected contingent is only valid for a single day.
  Cause:
  
  Single-Day Contingent: The contingent you are trying to split is defined for a single day, and the system does not allow splitting of such contingents.
  Planning Parameters: The planning parameters or settings may not allow for the splitting of contingents that are defined for a short duration.
  Data Entry Error: There may be an error in how the contingent was entered or defined in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Contingent Duration: Verify the duration of the contingent you are trying to split. If it is indeed only for one day, consider whether splitting is necessary or if you can work with the existing contingent as is.
  Adjust Planning Parameters: If splitting is required, you may need to adjust the planning parameters or settings to allow for contingents that can be split, if applicable.
  Create a New Contingent: If splitting is not possible, consider creating a new contingent that spans the required duration and can be split as needed.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources related to contingent planning to understand the limitations and configurations that may apply.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
