• Message class: WXP - Retail Planning

• Message number: 111

• Message text: Caution: planning scenario &1 is not yet activated

What causes this issue?

You want to go to <DS:GLOS.36BB0C94F8A203E4E10000009B38F9B6>planning
hierarchy</> maintenance. <DS:DE.WISP_PLSZN>Planning scenario</> &V1&
has, however, not been activated yet. Activation ensures that the
planning hierarchy table structures correspond to
characteristic/planning step assignments. The current structure may
not, therefore, represent the actual assignment of plan characteristics
to planning steps.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Stay in hierarchy maintenance only if you could not activate the
planning scenario, as proportional factors still exist in hierarchy
tables with the old structure. Use hierarchy maintenance to delete this
data. Go back to planning scenario maintenance and execute activation.
After having done this you can create proportional factors in the new
hierarchy.
If you do not want to delete any proportional factors due to the
reorganization of plan characteristics, exit hierarchy maintenance and
then activate the planning scenario.
If you do not have authorization to activate planning scenarios,
contact
the relevant system administrator.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP111 - Caution: planning scenario &1 is not yet activated ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WXP111 Caution: planning scenario &1 is not yet activated
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you try to use or execute a planning scenario in SAP that has been created but not yet activated. In SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or other planning-related modules, scenarios need to be activated before they can be used for planning runs, simulations, or data processing.
  
  The placeholder &1 in the message represents the name or ID of the planning scenario.
  Activation is necessary because it compiles and validates the scenario configuration, making it available for execution.
  If the scenario is not activated, the system cannot proceed with planning activities related to it.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this warning, you need to activate the planning scenario:
  
  
  Go to the Planning Scenario Maintenance:
  
  Use the transaction or application where the planning scenario is maintained (e.g., SAP IBP Web UI or SAP GUI transaction depending on your system).
  
  
  
  Select the Planning Scenario:
  
  Locate the scenario with the name or ID mentioned in the message.
  
  
  
  Activate the Scenario:
  
  There should be an option/button to activate the scenario.
  Activation will validate the scenario and make it ready for use.
  
  
  
  Verify Activation:
  
  After activation, try running the planning process again.
  The warning message should no longer appear.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Planning Scenario: A planning scenario in SAP IBP defines the planning logic, key figures, planning levels, and other parameters for a specific planning process.
  Activation Process: Activation compiles the scenario and checks for consistency and completeness.
  Impact of Not Activating: Without activation, the scenario cannot be executed, which means no planning runs or simulations can be performed.
  Related Transactions/Tools:
  
  SAP IBP Web UI: Scenario management apps.
  SAP GUI: Depending on the module, transaction codes like /SAPAPO/SDP94 (for APO Demand Planning) or others might be relevant.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to activate scenarios.
