The message indicates that a certain number of days (in this case, 3 days) cannot be added to a specified date using a specified calendar.
  Cause:

  Adjust Planning Area Settings:
  
  Review the settings of the planning area to ensure that there are no restrictions that would prevent the addition of days.
