  • What causes this issue?

    During the forecast run, the system read no historical time periods or
    inconsistent historical time periods for the material entered for the
    plant.

    System Response

    The system cannot run the forecast for the material entered for the
    plant, as there is either no history available or the history is
    inconsistent.
    Possible reasons for this are:
    No supply of historical data
    The check for incomplete data in the history has revealed that for a
    given period indicator, at least one period has an invalid date for the
    first day of the period. This could be caused by changing the period
    indicator in the forecast master data.

    How to fix this error?

    A sufficient number of valid historical periods must be available in
    the system.
