• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP683 - Promotion &1 was not created in the planning session ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WXP683 Promotion &1 was not created in the planning session
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when a promotion (a specific type of planning object or scenario) that you are trying to access or reference was not created or initialized in the current planning session. Essentially, the system expects a promotion object to exist in the session context, but it cannot find it.
  Common reasons include:  
  
  The promotion was never created or activated in the current planning session.  
  The planning session was reset or expired, and the promotion data was lost.  
  The promotion ID (&1) is incorrect or does not match any existing promotion in the session.  
  There is a mismatch between the planning session and the promotion data (e.g., different versions or clients).
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Verify Promotion Creation:
  
  Ensure that the promotion &1 has been properly created and saved in the current planning session. You may need to recreate or activate the promotion.
  
  
  Check Planning Session:
  
  Confirm that you are working in the correct planning session where the promotion was created. If the session expired or was reset, start a new session and recreate the promotion.
  
  
  Correct Promotion ID:
  
  Double-check the promotion ID you are referencing. Make sure it matches exactly the promotion created in the session.
  
  
  Recreate Promotion:
  
  If the promotion was deleted or not created, create it again using the appropriate transaction or planning tool.
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to create or access promotions in the planning session.
  
  
  Review Customizing and Configuration:
  
  Sometimes, missing or incorrect configuration in the promotion planning setup can cause this error. Verify the promotion planning setup in SPRO or relevant IMG nodes.
