   • Invalid factory calendar or error in the factory calendar
     Message no. 61063

The error occurs when the plant involved in the transaction does not have a valid factory calendar assigned, or the requested date falls outside the valid working days of the assigned calendar.

  1. Go to Activity/SSCUI 'Define Plant'.
  2. Select the plant in question.
  3. Assign a valid factory calendar (one that defines working days and holidays).
  4. Save the changes.
     
     
• Verify Factory Calendar Validity
  1. Go to Activity/SSCUI 'Maintain Calendar'.

  3. Check that the calendar has valid “From” and “To” dates that cover the date used in the requirement.
  4. Confirm that the requested date falls within the calendar validity period.
