Symptom
An error message "Measurement Data cannot be in future" is encountered when trying to add measurement data in the 'Perform Maintenance Jobs' app.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Access 'Perform Maintenance jobs' app.
- Assign order operation to the user, enter the operation and click Start.
- Attempt to add measurement reading with the default date/time and error occurred.
Cause
The system does not allow the measurement time to be in the future as a measurement reading describes an actual state. However, due to timezone differences, the system may interpret the current time as being in the future, thus causing the error.
Resolution
Update the 'Tolerance Period for a Measurement Time in the Future' for the measuring point category by following these steps:
- Enter SSCUI 102636 - Define Measuring Point Categories.
- Double click on the measuring point category, e.g. category 'A'.
- Set 'Tolerance Period (sec)' value to '20'.
- Save the change and try again.
