  SAP Error Message:
  WXP730 Unexpected return code FB WIS_PLAN_DIALOG_HIER: &
  
  1. Cause
  This error typically occurs in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there is an issue with the planning function or planning sequence, specifically related to the function module or dialog module WIS_PLAN_DIALOG_HIER.
  
  The message indicates that an unexpected return code was received from the function module WIS_PLAN_DIALOG_HIER.
  The return code FB (or other codes) signals that the function module did not complete successfully or returned an error condition that the calling program did not expect.
  This can happen due to:
  
  Incorrect or inconsistent planning function configuration.
  Missing or incorrect hierarchy data in the planning area.
  Authorization issues or missing master data.
  Incompatibility or mismatch between the planning function and the data model.
  System inconsistencies or transport issues affecting the planning function modules.
  
  
  
  
  2. Solution
  To resolve the error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Planning Function Configuration:
  
  Verify that the planning function and its parameters are correctly defined.
  Ensure that the planning function is compatible with the data model and hierarchy used.
  
  
  
  Validate Hierarchy Data:
  
  Check if the hierarchy referenced in the planning function exists and is consistent.
  Use transaction RSH1 or RSA1 to verify hierarchy maintenance.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure the user executing the planning function has the necessary authorizations for the planning area and hierarchy.
  
  
  
  Debug the Function Module:
  
  If you have developer access, debug the function module WIS_PLAN_DIALOG_HIER to identify the exact cause of the unexpected return code.
  Look for any exceptions or error messages inside the function module.
  
  
  
  Check for OSS Notes:
  
  Search SAP OSS Notes for the error message or related function module issues.
  SAP Notes may provide patches or corrections for known bugs.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Consistency:
  
  If the error appeared after a transport or system upgrade, verify that all related objects were transported correctly.
  Check for inconsistencies in the planning area or function modules.
  
  
  
  General Troubleshooting:
  
  Clear the planning cache or restart the planning session.
  Test the planning function with a simpler or different hierarchy to isolate the problem.
