How To Fix S2L104 - Supply segment is excluded from planning

S2L104 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: S2L - Production Supply: General Messages

• Message number: 104

• Message text: Supply segment is excluded from planning

What causes this issue?

The control cycle for material &V1&, plant &V2& and production supply
area &V3& uses the same stock.

System Response

If several control cycles use the same stock, the system cannot perform
any meaningful processing. The control cycles in question are omitted
from planning. A supply segment is only created for one control cycle in
the supply-to-line planning table. The displayed supply situation and
the corresponding status may differ from the actual supply situation.
The supply-to-line planning table carries out your calculation of the
demand/stock situation at so-called supply segment level. A supply
segment always corresponds to exactly one control cycle.
If several control cycles refer to the same stock, a meaningful
calculation and display of the demand/stock situation is not possible
since it has not been defined which portion of the stock is assigned to
which control cycle.

How to fix this error?

If production takes place within a WM-managed storage location with bin
inventories, then maximum one control cycle can be given per material in
a WM storage bin.
If the stock in the production warehouse is only managed at storage
location level (no WM or lean WM) then a maximum of one control cycle
per material can be given in a storage location.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
