    Error Message

    WT212 No factory calendar found for plant &1


    Cause

    This error occurs when the system tries to determine the factory calendar for a specific plant, but no factory calendar has been assigned or maintained for that plant in the system.

    • The factory calendar is essential for scheduling and time-dependent processes such as work scheduling, production planning, and time evaluation.
    • If the plant does not have a factory calendar assigned, the system cannot calculate working days, holidays, or non-working days, leading to this error.

    Where it Occurs

    • During time evaluation (e.g., in Time Management).
    • When running work scheduling or production planning.
    • When processing time-dependent transactions that require knowledge of working days.
    • In payroll or personnel time management processes.

    Solution

    1. Assign a Factory Calendar to the Plant:

      • Go to transaction SPRO (SAP Reference IMG).
      • Navigate to:
        Enterprise Structure ? Definition ? Logistics General ? Define, copy, delete, check plant
      • Select the plant in question.
      • Assign a factory calendar to the plant.
    2. Maintain Factory Calendar:

      • Use transaction SCAL (Factory Calendar).
      • Check if the factory calendar assigned to the plant exists and is properly maintained.
      • Maintain holidays, special days, and weekly work schedules as needed.
    3. Check Customizing Settings:

      • Ensure that the factory calendar is correctly linked to the plant in the IMG.
      • If no factory calendar exists, create one in SCAL and assign it.
    4. Verify in the System:

      • Use transaction OVZ9 to check the factory calendar assignment for the plant.
      • Or use PPOME or SPRO to verify organizational assignments.

    Additional Information

    • Factory calendars are crucial for many SAP modules, including MM, PP, HR, and PM.
    • The factory calendar controls working days, holidays, and non-working days, which affect scheduling and time calculations.
    • If multiple plants exist, each plant can have its own factory calendar depending on regional holidays and working days.
    • Sometimes, the error can also occur if the factory calendar is assigned but not properly maintained (e.g., missing holiday entries).
