• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPOSN000 - Factory calender for store & could not be determined ?

  The SAP error message WPOSN000: Factory calendar for store & could not be determined typically occurs in the context of Retail or Logistics processes where the system tries to determine the factory calendar for a particular store (plant or location) but fails to find or assign it.
  
  Cause
  
  The system is unable to find a valid factory calendar assigned to the store (which is often represented by a plant or a location in SAP Retail).
  This can happen if:
  
  The factory calendar is not maintained or assigned to the plant/store.
  The plant/store master data is incomplete or incorrect.
  The factory calendar assigned is invalid or missing for the relevant period.
  The integration between Retail and Logistics is missing or incorrect, causing the system to fail in fetching the calendar.
  
  
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Factory Calendar Assignment:
  
  Go to transaction SPRO ? Logistics General ? Calendar ? Define Factory Calendar.
  Verify that a factory calendar exists and is valid for the store/plant in question.
  
  
  
  Assign Factory Calendar to Plant:
  
  Use transaction OX10 (or SPRO path: Enterprise Structure ? Definition ? Logistics General ? Define Plants).
  Check the plant/store master data and ensure that the correct factory calendar is assigned to the plant.
  
  
  
  Verify Store Master Data:
  
  In Retail, check the store master data (transaction WPOS or relevant Retail master data transactions).
  Ensure the store is linked to the correct plant and that the plant has a valid factory calendar.
  
  
  
  Check Calendar Validity:
  
  Make sure the factory calendar is valid for the date range in question.
  Use transaction SCAL to view and maintain factory calendars.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Process:
  
  After correcting the calendar assignment, re-run the process that triggered the error.
