• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KG1189 - The parameter set is still used in planning sequence &1 ?

  The SAP error message KG1189 indicates that a parameter set is still being used in a planning sequence, which prevents you from deleting or modifying it. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Controlling (CO) when working with planning functions and sequences.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to delete or change a parameter set that is currently linked to a planning sequence. The planning sequence is a set of instructions that dictate how planning data is processed, and if a parameter set is still in use, SAP will not allow modifications to ensure data integrity.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Planning Sequence: Use the planning sequence number provided in the error message (denoted as &1) to identify which planning sequence is using the parameter set.
  
  
  Check the Planning Sequence:
  
  Go to the transaction code for planning sequences (e.g., KSP0 for planning sequence maintenance).
  Enter the planning sequence number and check the details to see which parameter sets are linked.
  
  
  
  Remove the Parameter Set:
  
  If you need to delete or modify the parameter set, you must first remove it from the planning sequence.
  Edit the planning sequence and remove the reference to the parameter set.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After removing the parameter set from the planning sequence, save your changes.
  
  
  Retry the Operation: Once the parameter set is no longer in use, you should be able to delete or modify it without encountering the error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KSP0 (Planning Sequence Maintenance) and KP26 (Change Plan Data) for planning-related tasks.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on planning sequences and parameter sets in the context of SAP Controlling.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to planning sequences and parameter sets.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, consider consulting with your SAP Basis or CO module team for further assistance.
