• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC829 - Fiscal year variant/date combination not maintained &1/&2. ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_APC829 Fiscal year variant/date combination not maintained &1/&2.
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to process a date that does not fit into the defined intervals of the fiscal year variant assigned to the company code or controlling area. Specifically, the fiscal year variant does not have the date interval maintained for the given date or period.
  In other words, the fiscal year variant configuration lacks the necessary date intervals or the date provided falls outside the maintained intervals.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Fiscal Year Variant: Defines the fiscal year structure (number of posting periods, special periods, start and end dates).
  Date Combination: The date (posting date, document date, or other relevant date) being processed must fall within the intervals defined in the fiscal year variant.
  If the fiscal year variant is not properly maintained or the date is outside the defined intervals, SAP throws this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Fiscal Year Variant assigned:
  
  Go to transaction OB29 (Maintain Fiscal Year Variant).
  Verify the fiscal year variant assigned to the company code or controlling area (via OB37 or OKKP).
  
  
  
  Maintain the Date Intervals:
  
  In OB29, check the intervals for the fiscal year variant.
  Ensure that the date in question (&2) falls within the intervals maintained for the fiscal year variant (&1).
  If missing, maintain the intervals properly:
  
  Define the start and end dates for each fiscal year.
  Define posting periods and special periods as needed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check the Document Date or Posting Date:
  
  Verify the date on the document triggering the error.
  Ensure it is correct and falls within the fiscal year variant intervals.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Date or Fiscal Year Variant:
  
  If the date is incorrect, correct the document date.
  If the fiscal year variant is outdated or incomplete, update it accordingly.
