SAP Error Message - Details

• Message number: 250

• Message text: Plan settlement to PSG/ORD/WBS is only possible after fiscal year &

What causes this issue?

You wish to carry out a plan settlement to a profitability segment,
internal order or WBS element. In an earlier Release, this sender was
settled in fiscal year &V1& to a cost center or a business process.
For technical reasons, you can only execute the plan settlement to a
profitability segment, an order or a WBS element after fiscal year
&V1&.

How to fix this error?

Settle fiscal year &V2& to a cost center or a business process. In
fiscal years after &V1& you can settle to a profitability segment, an
internal order or a WBS element.
If you want to settle to a profitability segment, an internal order or
a WBS element in fiscal year &V1& or earlier, proceed as follows:
RESET N2
Reset the plan settlement of fiscal year &V1& and, if required, earlier
plan settlements, in all versions.
Settle the fiscal years consecutively in the plan to a profitability
segment, order or WBS element.
If, when you reset the plan settlement for fiscal year &V1&, you
receive this error message, delete the distribution rules with the
"profitability segment" (that are valid for fiscal year &V1&). Or,
reset the validity date so that the plan distribution rules with
receiver "profitability segment" in fiscal year &V1& are no longer
valid.
Then reset the plan settlement. You can then reactivate the rules with
the receiver "profitability segment" for fiscal year &V1&.
Settle the fiscal years one after the other in the plan to the
profitability segment, internal order or WBS element.
