SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WXPB - MAP Messages: SAP R/3 Enterprise Add-On

• Message number: 219

• Message text: Making changes will delete locked cells from the memory (see long text)

What causes this issue?

During manual planning you can navigate between the overview and period
screens and also to the screen between the different characteristic
levels. As long as you do not leave the overview or period screen, the
locked data or total cells will be temporarily stored in a program
buffer (not in the database) every time you change screens. This
ensures that the cells remain locked if you return to a screen with a
certain combination of characteristics for which the cells were already
locked. The buffer <ZH>cannot</> remain intact if the settings for the
lead columns that have not yet been displayed are changed (for example,
by displaying subtotals).

System Response

If the settings for the lead columns are changed, the buffer containing
all the locked cells from the screens processed so far will be deleted.
If you navigate back to one of these screens later, the cells that were
locked before will no longer be locked.
If you do not change the settings the buffer will stay as it is. If you
navigate back to a screen that has already been processed, the cells
that were locked before will still be locked.

How to fix this error?

When you first enter the overview screen, select the lead column
setting that you require. If possible, do not change this setting
during the course of manual planning or only change it if you are sure
you no longer need to navigate back to the period screen or to a
characteristics combination that you have already processed in the
overview screen. If you do this, the buffer will be deleted and then
recreated.
