• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TU153 - If you enter a 'Factory cal.ID' you must also maintain 'Corr.holiday' fld ?

  The SAP error message TU153 indicates that when you enter a "Factory Calendar ID" in the system, you must also maintain the "Corr. Holiday" field. This error typically arises in the context of configuring factory calendars and holiday settings in SAP, particularly in modules related to production planning or time management.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system requires a correlation between the factory calendar and the corresponding holiday settings. If you specify a factory calendar, the system expects you to also define how holidays are handled within that calendar. This is to ensure that the system can accurately calculate working days, production schedules, and other time-related functions.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to maintain the "Corr. Holiday" field in conjunction with the "Factory Calendar ID." Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant configuration transaction in SAP (e.g., SPRO) to maintain factory calendars and holiday settings.
  
  
  
  Maintain Factory Calendar:
  
  Navigate to the section where you can define or edit factory calendars.
  Enter the Factory Calendar ID that you are working with.
  
  
  
  Set the Correct Holiday:
  
  Look for the "Corr. Holiday" field in the configuration screen.
  Enter the appropriate holiday calendar or settings that correspond to the factory calendar you have selected.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After entering the necessary information, save your changes.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error message no longer appears and that the system behaves as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Factory Calendar: This is a calendar that defines the working days and non-working days for a specific plant or location. It is crucial for scheduling and planning activities in production and logistics.
  
  
  Corr. Holiday Field: This field is used to specify the holiday calendar that should be used in conjunction with the factory calendar. It helps in determining which days are considered holidays and should not be counted as working days.
  
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like SCAL (for maintaining factory calendars) and SCAL_HOLIDAY (for maintaining holiday calendars) to access the relevant settings directly.
  
  
  Documentation: Always refer to the official SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for specific guidelines and best practices related to your SAP environment.
