Please suggest how to get the planning area initialises.

Hi,

The error is coming because of key figure(wrongly created/invalid parematers).

Please Change the key figures.

First Try with standard key figure.

If problem persist then let me know.

Other thing you can check:

1. Check the Periodicities, Create New(don't take currency field while doing) - you should specify the correct date interval without gap

2. Check MPOS and create atleast 1 CVC (Without CVC it will not work)

Please go through the following:

Re-Initialize Your Planning Area with report /SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_INITIALIZE. The creation

of time series objects for the planning area is known as initializing the planning area. The

system creates a network of characteristics and key figures in liveCache, time series objects

are created for a version and a period of time. You can extend the time series into the future

and delete the oldest periods from liveCache by re-initializing the time series periodically. In

this way, you can maintain a "rolling horizon". The system recognizes where new

characteristic value combinations or new time series exist, and creates time series objects

only for the new master data. From release SAP SCM 4.0, you can define key-figure specific

initialization horizons and save a lot of memory in your liveCache. For example, for historical

key figures, you can initialize only time buckets in the past and for forecast figures only

buckets in the future. This can be defined in a Pop-Up window during the start of the report or

in the transaction for key figure administration.

The report /SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_INITIALIZE locks the complete version of the planning

area. If the lock cannot be set, the report terminates. From release SAP SCM 4.0, you have

the additional possibility to perform the initialization with parallel processes by defining a

parallelization profile in transaction /SAPAPO/SDP_PAR. For this, you have to define a block

size and a maximum number of parallel processes for the planning area. After starting the

Best Practice: Manage Demand Planning in SAP APO (3.x) / SAP SCM (4.x, 5.x)

initialization job, it automatically creates the desired number of parallel processes. If the report

terminates abnormally for any reason other than lock problems (you can see this in the job

log), run report /SAPAPO/TS_LCM_CONS_CHECK with option Repair (see Maintenance of

DP Data Storage Structures) before restarting/SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_INITIALIZE.

For example, if you no longer need a certain planning version, you can remove its data from

liveCache by deleting the time series objects with report

/SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_DE_INITIALIZE.

Hi,

Thanks for the sugesstions.

This error occured due to implementation of SAP note 1276922, we wrote to SAP and they suggessted implementation of note 1280841 as coreection.

Hi Sireesh,

Carry out a timeseries consistency check using transaction /SAPAPO/TSCONS - Consistency Check for Time Series Network

If no errors observed, carryout /SAPAPO/PSTRUCONS - Consistency Check for Planning Object Structure as well.

Hi,

I have checked the key figures but found no error. The same is successful for another Planning area with same key figures.

Also the type of the message is time series /SAPAPO/TS so i checked fot time series , but the error still remains.
