How To Fix UPP_PP_K030 - Overlapping characteristic values were maintained for characteristic '&1'

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UPP_PP_K - Messages for Planning Processor Core

• Message number: 030

• Message text: Overlapping characteristic values were maintained for characteristic '&1'

What causes this issue?

When maintaining the selections in the current planning level or
current planning package for characteristic '&V1&', you maintained
several values.
Among these values, the system came across one or more of the following
situations:
One or more individual values appeared several times.
One or more individual values are also contained in an interval.
Intervals overlap.
These cases can also occur when a <ZH>BW hierarchy</> was defined in
the planning level or planning package. In this case, the selection
alone is determined from the pages of the hierarchy on the hierarchy
characteristic; this message is also issued when pages occur several
times. This is also the case when the hierarchy characteristic itself
is compounded and differs in a higher-level characteristic. Only the
share of characteristic values is relevant for the selection, which
result from the hierarchy-bearing characteristic.
Selection values of this type are not supported within manual planning.

System Response

Manual planning cannot be called up with the current planning level or
planning package.

How to fix this error?

First, determine whether the selections for the characteristic are
stored in the planning level or the planning package. Then, change the
selections there so that no more overlapping occurs.
If this message occurs when using an <ZH>BW hierarchy</>, then remove
the double characteristic values on the hierarchy characteristic. If
the hierarchy is compounded and the overlapping characteristic values
only occur because the higher-level characteristics are ignored in the
selection, then you can still use the hierarchy in the selection if you
access a subnode. In this subtree, the higher-level characteristics
should then have the same value and the pages should also not occur
several times.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
