  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP035 - Enter a planning scenario ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WXP035 - Enter a planning scenario


    Cause:

    The message WXP035 typically appears in SAP when you are working with SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC) or SAP BW Integrated Planning and the system expects you to specify a planning scenario but none has been entered or selected.

    A planning scenario in SAP BW Integrated Planning or BPC defines the context or environment for planning activities. It includes the planning area, version, and other parameters that guide the planning process. Without specifying a scenario, the system cannot proceed with planning functions such as data entry, simulation, or data transfer.


    When does this error occur?

    • When you try to execute a planning function (e.g., planning sequence, planning function module, or planning layout) without specifying the planning scenario.
    • When the planning scenario is missing or not maintained in the planning function or planning sequence.
    • When the planning scenario is not passed correctly from the front-end (e.g., BPC Excel frontend or SAP GUI) to the backend.

    Solution:

    1. Enter or Select a Planning Scenario:

      • When prompted, enter the appropriate planning scenario in the input field.
      • If you are using a planning function or sequence, ensure that the planning scenario is maintained in the function or sequence definition.
    2. Check Planning Function/Sequence Configuration:

      • Go to transaction RSPLAN or the relevant planning function maintenance transaction.
      • Verify that the planning scenario is assigned correctly.
      • If missing, assign the correct planning scenario.
    3. Check Frontend Settings:

      • If using BPC Excel frontend, ensure that the planning scenario is correctly set in the BPC model or input-ready report.
      • Refresh or re-open the planning layout to ensure the scenario is passed correctly.
    4. Authorization Check:

      • Ensure the user has authorization to access the planning scenario.
      • Missing authorizations can sometimes cause the system to behave as if no scenario is entered.
    5. Transport and System Consistency:

      • If this error appears after a transport or system copy, verify that the planning scenario exists and is consistent in the target system.

    Related Information:

    • Planning Scenario: Defines the planning environment including planning area, version, and other parameters.
    • Planning Area: The data model for planning, including characteristics and key figures.
    • Planning Version: Defines the version of data (e.g., actual, plan, forecast).
    • Transactions:
      • RSPLAN – Planning function maintenance.
      • RSPLS – Planning sequence maintenance.
      • RSRREPDIR – Report directory maintenance (for BW Integrated Planning).
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to planning scenarios and error WXP035 for any known issues or patches.
    • BPC Frontend: In BPC, the planning scenario is often linked to the model and input-ready reports.

    Summary:

    • Cause: No planning scenario entered or assigned.
    • Solution: Enter/select the planning scenario; maintain it in planning functions/sequences; verify frontend settings and authorizations.

    If you provide more context (e.g., which SAP module or transaction you are using), I can give more tailored advice.
