  Error Message
  WXP362: Now activate planning scenario &1
  
  Cause
  This message typically appears in the context of SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC) or SAP BW Integrated Planning (BW-IP) when you are working with planning scenarios. The system is indicating that the planning scenario you are trying to use or reference is currently inactive.
  In SAP BW-IP or BPC, a planning scenario is a container for planning objects such as planning functions, sequences, and data models. Before you can execute or use a planning scenario, it must be activated. Activation compiles and makes the scenario available for planning activities.
  If you see this message, it means:
  
  The planning scenario &1 (where &1 is the scenario name) exists but is not activated.
  You might have created or changed the scenario but forgot to activate it.
  The system requires the scenario to be active to proceed with the requested operation.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve this message, you need to activate the planning scenario. The steps are:
  
  
  Go to the Planning Scenario Maintenance:
  
  In SAP GUI, use transaction code RSPLAN or navigate through the BW-IP or BPC administration tools.
  
  
  
  Select the Planning Scenario:
  
  Enter the name of the planning scenario &1 (the one mentioned in the message).
  
  
  
  Activate the Scenario:
  
  Use the Activate function/button.
  This will compile the scenario and make it available for planning.
  
  
  
  Verify Activation:
  
  After activation, try to execute your planning function or process again.
  The error message should no longer appear.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  
  When does this happen?
