  Going to the transaction code /SAPAPO/VER (or the relevant transaction for managing planning versions).
  Selecting the planning version you want to work with and ensuring it is set to inactive.
  
  
  
  
  
  Generate PDS: Once you are in an inactive planning version, attempt to generate the PDS again. This should allow the process to complete without errors.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If you frequently encounter this issue, review your planning version configuration and processes to ensure that PDS generation is consistently done in inactive versions.
