  SAP Error Message:
  WSTRN067
  
  Text: Fix allocation plan for season &1/&2 rollout &3, before starting new one
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to create or start a new allocation plan for a particular season and rollout, but there is already an existing allocation plan for the same season and rollout that has not been finalized or fixed yet.
  In SAP Retail (especially in Allocation Planning), the system requires that only one active allocation plan exists per season and rollout at a time. If an allocation plan is still open (not fixed or released), you cannot start a new one for the same season and rollout.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Season &1: The season for which the allocation plan is being created.
  Rollout &3: The rollout number or identifier.
  &2: Additional identifier, often the year or version.
  
  The system is telling you that the allocation plan for this season and rollout is still open and must be fixed (finalized) before you can create a new allocation plan.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Allocation Plans:
  
  Go to the allocation planning transaction (e.g., /SAPAPO/ATP_ALLOC or the relevant transaction in your SAP Retail system).
  Find the existing allocation plan for the season and rollout mentioned in the error message.
  
  
  
  Fix (Finalize) the Existing Allocation Plan:
  
  Review the existing allocation plan.
  If the plan is complete and correct, fix or release it so that it becomes final.
  Fixing the plan usually means confirming the allocations and locking the plan from further changes.
  
  
  
  Delete or Close the Existing Plan (if applicable):
  
  If the existing plan is obsolete or incorrect, you may need to delete or close it before creating a new one.
  Note: Deleting or closing plans should be done carefully and usually requires appropriate authorization.
  
  
  
  Create New Allocation Plan:
  
  Once the existing plan is fixed or closed, you can proceed to create a new allocation plan for the same season and rollout.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Authorization: Ensure you have the necessary authorization to fix or delete allocation plans.
  Transaction Codes: Allocation planning is often done in transactions like /SAPAPO/ATP_ALLOC or custom transactions depending on your SAP Retail setup.
  Impact: Not fixing the allocation plan can block further planning activities and delay merchandise distribution.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Retail Allocation Planning guides or SAP Notes related to allocation plan management for detailed procedures.
