What causes this issue?

Real-time InfoCube '&V1&' currently has operating mode 'load data'. You
cannot use the InfoCube for planning while it has this operation mode.
As of SAP BW release 3.0A you can switch between different operation
modes for real-time InfoCubes in order to generate transaction data. You
can either generate plan data or upload it in the conventional way using
InfoSources. You can switch between the two modes of operation as much
as you like, but they are mutually exclusive.
