  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message T1204 - Calendar &1 has only been maintained up to year &2 ?

    The SAP error message T1204 indicates that the calendar you are trying to use has not been maintained beyond a certain year. Specifically, the message states that the calendar &1 (the name of the calendar) has only been maintained up to year &2 (the last year for which the calendar is defined). This typically occurs when you are trying to perform operations that require date information beyond the defined range of the calendar.

    Cause:

    1. Calendar Maintenance: The calendar has not been set up or maintained for the years beyond the specified year. This can happen if the organization has not updated the calendar for future years.
    2. System Configuration: The configuration settings in SAP for the calendar may not have been properly set, leading to limitations in the date range.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you need to extend the maintenance of the calendar to include the required years. Here are the steps to do this:

    1. Access Calendar Maintenance:

      • Go to the transaction code SCAL (or use the menu path: Logistics > Central Functions > Master Data > Calendar > Maintain Calendar).
    2. Select the Calendar:

      • In the calendar maintenance screen, enter the name of the calendar that is causing the error.
    3. Extend the Calendar:

      • Check the current settings and extend the calendar to include the necessary years. You may need to add holidays, working days, and other relevant information for the new years.
    4. Save Changes:

      • After making the necessary changes, save the calendar.
    5. Test the Changes:

      • Try to perform the operation again that previously resulted in the error to ensure that the issue has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Calendar Types: SAP supports various types of calendars, including factory calendars, holiday calendars, and fiscal calendars. Ensure you are maintaining the correct type of calendar for your needs.
    • Dependencies: Some modules in SAP (like HR, Project Systems, etc.) may have specific requirements regarding calendar settings. Ensure that the calendar is aligned with the business processes.
