• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP152 - Data still exists for plan version &1 in planning step &2 ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WXP152 Data still exists for plan version &1 in planning step &2
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This warning message indicates that there is still existing planning data for the specified plan version (&1) in the given planning step (&2). This typically occurs when you try to delete or change a plan version or planning step, but the system detects that data (such as planning records, key figures, or other related data) still exists for that version and step.
  In other words, the system prevents you from performing an action (like deleting or resetting a plan version or planning step) because the data associated with that version and step has not been cleared or removed yet.
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  Attempting to delete a plan version that still contains planning data.
  Trying to reset or change a planning step without first clearing the data.
  Copying or activating a plan version when residual data exists in a planning step.
  
  
  Solution / How to Resolve:
  
  
  Check the Planning Data:
  
  Use transaction codes like CPSP (Planning Board) or CPSP_PLAN to review the data for the specified plan version and planning step.
  Identify if there are any key figures or planning records still stored.
  
  
  
  Delete or Clear the Data:
  
  Use the appropriate function/module to delete or clear the planning data for the plan version and planning step.
  This can be done via:
  
  Planning board options to delete data.
  Using transaction CPSP ? Planning step ? Delete data.
  Or via program RSPLAN_DELETE or similar custom programs if available.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to delete or modify planning data.
  
  
  
  Retry the Operation:
  
  After clearing the data, retry the operation that triggered the warning.

  Plan Version: A version of the planning data, often used to separate different planning scenarios or cycles.
