  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP002 - No entry exists in the planning hierarchy for your selection criteria ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WXP002 - No entry exists in the planning hierarchy for your selection criteria


    Cause:

    This warning message occurs when you try to execute a planning function or report in SAP (typically in SAP APO or SAP SCM planning tools) and the system cannot find any relevant entries in the planning hierarchy that match the selection criteria you have provided.

    In other words, the system is looking for planning objects (such as locations, products, or planning levels) in the planning hierarchy, but none exist or none match the filters or selection parameters you have entered.

    Common reasons include:

    • The planning hierarchy has not been maintained or created for the relevant planning version or planning area.
    • The selection criteria (e.g., product, location, planning version, planning level) do not correspond to any nodes in the planning hierarchy.
    • The planning version or planning area is incorrect or not active.
    • The planning hierarchy is incomplete or missing for the selected planning version.

    Solution:

    To resolve the WXP002 message, you should:

    1. Check the Planning Hierarchy Setup:

      • Verify that the planning hierarchy has been created and maintained for the planning version and planning area you are working with.
      • Use transaction /SAPAPO/SDP94 (or the relevant planning hierarchy maintenance transaction) to display and maintain the planning hierarchy.
      • Ensure that the nodes (e.g., location, product, or other planning objects) exist and are correctly assigned.
    2. Verify Selection Criteria:

      • Double-check the selection parameters you entered when running the planning function or report.
      • Make sure the product, location, planning version, and planning level are correct and exist in the planning hierarchy.
      • Try broadening the selection criteria to see if any entries are found.
    3. Check Planning Version and Planning Area:

      • Confirm that the planning version you are using is active and contains data.
      • Ensure the planning area is correctly assigned and consistent with the planning hierarchy.
    4. Rebuild or Activate Planning Hierarchy:

      • If the planning hierarchy is missing or incomplete, rebuild or activate it.
      • Sometimes, running the planning hierarchy generation or activation program can help.
    5. Check Authorizations:

      • Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to view or work with the planning hierarchy.
