WL627
- Latest start & & greater than inherited start time & & ?The SAP error message WL627 ("Latest start & & greater than inherited start time & &") typically occurs in the context of project management or production planning within SAP. This error indicates that the latest start time for a task or activity is set to a value that is later than the inherited start time from its predecessor or related task. This situation creates a logical inconsistency in the scheduling of tasks.
Cause:
- Incorrect Scheduling: The latest start time for a task is set incorrectly, making it later than the start time of a predecessor task.
- Dependency Issues: There may be issues with task dependencies where the scheduling logic does not align with the defined relationships between tasks.
- Manual Input Errors: Users may have manually entered incorrect dates or times when defining task schedules.
Solution:
- Review Task Dependencies: Check the relationships between the tasks involved. Ensure that the latest start time for the task does not exceed the start time of any predecessor tasks.
- Adjust Latest Start Time: Modify the latest start time of the task to be earlier than or equal to the inherited start time from the predecessor task.
- Check Scheduling Parameters: Review the scheduling parameters and settings in the project or production planning module to ensure they are configured correctly.
- Use Scheduling Tools: Utilize SAP's scheduling tools to automatically calculate and adjust task timings based on dependencies and constraints.
