  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M7523 - & date comes after end of valid factory calendar. (Correct this) ?

    The SAP error message M7523 indicates that a date entered in a transaction is outside the valid range defined by the factory calendar. This typically occurs when trying to schedule production orders, create purchase orders, or perform other date-sensitive operations where the date does not align with the factory calendar settings.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Date Entry: The date you are trying to use is either before the start date or after the end date defined in the factory calendar.
    2. Factory Calendar Configuration: The factory calendar may not be set up correctly, or the validity period may have expired.
    3. System Date Settings: The system date may be incorrectly set, leading to discrepancies with the factory calendar.

    Solution:

    1. Check Factory Calendar Settings:

      • Go to the transaction code SCAL (Factory Calendar) in SAP.
      • Verify the validity period of the factory calendar. Ensure that the date you are trying to use falls within this range.
      • If necessary, extend the validity period of the factory calendar to include the required date.
    2. Adjust Date Entry:

      • If the date you are trying to enter is incorrect, adjust it to a valid date that falls within the factory calendar's range.
    3. Review Transaction Context:

      • Ensure that the transaction you are performing is appropriate for the date you are entering. For example, if you are creating a production order, ensure that the planned start and finish dates are valid.
    4. Check System Date:

      • Verify that the system date is set correctly. You can check this in the SAP GUI by using the transaction code SU01 to view user settings or by checking the system status.
    5. Consult with SAP Basis Team:

      • If you suspect that the issue is related to system settings or configurations, consult with your SAP Basis team to ensure that everything is set up correctly.

    Related Information:

    • Factory Calendar: A factory calendar defines working days, holidays, and other non-working days for a specific plant or company code. It is crucial for scheduling and planning in SAP.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SCAL for factory calendar maintenance, MD01 for MRP runs, and others that may be relevant to your operations.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on factory calendars and error messages related to date validations.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
