• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSPLS_CR081 - DataStore object '&1' does not support planning ?

  The SAP error message RSPLS_CR081 indicates that the DataStore Object (DSO) you are trying to use does not support planning. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when you are attempting to perform planning activities on a DSO that is not configured for planning.
  Cause:
  
  DSO Configuration: The DSO is not set up to support planning. In SAP BW, only certain types of objects (like InfoProviders specifically designed for planning) can be used for planning purposes.
  DataStore Object Type: The DSO might be of a type that inherently does not support planning, such as a standard DSO that is not configured for planning scenarios.
  Planning Functionality: The planning functionality may not be enabled for the specific DSO you are trying to use.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check DSO Settings: 
  
  Go to the DataStore Object in the SAP BW modeling tools.
  Check the properties of the DSO to see if it is configured for planning. You may need to enable planning features if they are not already enabled.
  
  
  
  Use a Planning-Enabled Object: 
  
  If the DSO is not suitable for planning, consider using a different InfoProvider that is designed for planning, such as an Aggregation Level or a Planning Query.
  
  
  
  Create a New DSO: 
  
  If necessary, create a new DSO that is specifically configured for planning. Ensure that you select the appropriate settings during the creation process to enable planning capabilities.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed instructions on how to configure a DSO for planning.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization: 
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform planning activities on the DSO.
