• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KAP3001 - PS: Exception condition "PSP_NOT_FOUND" was triggered ?

  The SAP error message KAP3001 with the exception condition "PSP_NOT_FOUND" typically occurs in the context of Project System (PS) when the system cannot find a valid Project Structure Plan (PSP) element for the specified input. This can happen during various operations, such as posting costs, creating orders, or executing reports related to project management.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Project Structure: The project structure (WBS element or network) you are trying to access does not exist or is not correctly defined in the system.
  Incorrect Input: The input data (like WBS element or network number) provided in the transaction might be incorrect or mistyped.
  Project Not Released: The project or WBS element may not be released, which can prevent certain operations from being performed.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the specified project structure.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the database or missing entries in the relevant tables.
  
  Solution:
  
  Verify Project Structure: Check if the WBS element or network number exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the Project System (PS) module and using transaction codes like CJ03 (Display WBS) or CN03 (Display Network).
  Check Input Data: Ensure that the input data is correct and matches the existing project structure. Look for any typos or incorrect entries.
  Release the Project: If the project or WBS element is not released, you may need to release it using transaction CJ20N (Project Builder) or CJ02 (Change WBS).
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify the project structure. This may require coordination with your SAP security team.
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on the project data to identify any inconsistencies. You can use transaction CJ_CHECK for this purpose.
