  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP124 - Planning scenario &1 does not have active / saved status ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WXP124: Planning scenario &1 does not have active / saved status


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to use or execute a planning scenario in SAP that is not currently in an active or saved status. Planning scenarios in SAP (especially in modules like SAP IBP, SAP APO, or SAP BW Integrated Planning) must be either saved or activated before they can be used for planning runs, simulations, or data processing.

    The system checks the status of the planning scenario, and if it is in a draft, inactive, or inconsistent state, it throws this error.


    Explanation:

    • A planning scenario is a container or configuration that defines the planning logic, key figures, planning levels, and other parameters.
    • Before running planning jobs or simulations, the scenario must be saved (persisted) and activated (made available for execution).
    • If the scenario is newly created or modified but not saved/activated, the system cannot proceed.

    Solution:

    1. Check the status of the planning scenario:

      • Go to the transaction or application where the planning scenario is maintained.
      • Verify if the scenario is saved and activated.
    2. Save the planning scenario:

      • If the scenario is in an unsaved state, save it.
    3. Activate the planning scenario:

      • After saving, activate the scenario.
      • Activation usually validates the scenario and makes it available for planning runs.
    4. Re-run the planning job or process:

      • Once the scenario is active, retry the operation that caused the error.

    How to activate a planning scenario (general steps):

    • Navigate to the planning scenario maintenance screen.
    • Select the scenario &1 (replace &1 with your scenario name).
    • Click on Save if not already saved.
    • Click on Activate or Set Active button.
    • Confirm any prompts or validations.

    Additional Information:

    • This error is common in SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or SAP BW Integrated Planning.
    • Sometimes, the scenario might be locked by another user or process; ensure no locks exist.
    • If the scenario was recently transported from another system, verify that the transport was successful and the scenario is active in the target system.
    • Check authorization: Ensure you have the necessary permissions to activate or save planning scenarios.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Planning scenario &1 not active/saved
    Cause Scenario is not saved or activated
    Solution Save and activate the planning scenario
    Where to check Planning scenario maintenance transaction
    Additional Check locks, authorizations, transport status

    If you provide the exact SAP module or transaction code, I can give more tailored instructions.
