• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ISDFPS/MISC652 - End date for material &1 is not specified ?

  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/MISC652 End date for material &1 is not specified typically occurs in the context of SAP's Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) modules, particularly when dealing with material master data or planning data.
  Cause:
  This error indicates that the system expects an end date to be specified for a particular material (denoted by &1 in the error message), but it has not been provided. This can happen in various scenarios, such as:
  
  Material Master Data: The end date for the material's lifecycle (e.g., when the material is no longer valid) is not set.
  Planning Data: In planning scenarios, if a material is being used in a planning run, the system may require an end date to determine the validity period of the material.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that require end dates for certain materials but are not properly set up.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the Material Master (transaction code MM03).
  Enter the material number that corresponds to &1.
  Check the validity dates in the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Sales, Purchasing).
  If the end date is missing, you may need to update the material master to include the appropriate end date.
  
  
  
  Update Planning Data:
  
  If the error occurs during a planning run, check the planning data for the material.
  Ensure that all necessary dates, including the end date, are specified in the planning book or data view.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you have access to configuration settings, review the settings related to material lifecycle management and planning.
  Ensure that the system is configured to handle materials without end dates if that is acceptable for your business process.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific module you are working with (IBP, APO, etc.) for any additional requirements regarding material end dates.
  
  
  
  Contact Support:
