Symptom
- Data access control is enabled on dimensions: account, company code, and profit center.
- Data entry is performed at account level with one profit center selected at a time.
- Error message: “Data can't be changed because it is for one or more members that are outside of the planning area of this version. The members come from the following dimensions: XXXX.”
Environment
SAP Analytics Cloud
Reproducing the Issue
- Sign in with a user having the planner reporter role.
- Open the planning story that contains the input-enabled table.
- Enter data in the input measure for a future period.
- Observe the error: “Data can't be changed because it is for one or more members that are outside of the planning area of this version. The members come from the following dimensions: XXXX”
Cause
Resolution
- In the story, select the input-enabled table and enable “Auto-Generate Planning Area Based on Table Context” in the builder panel for the recommended planning area. Test data entry again.
- If data locking is used, redeploy the model and assign at least “Read” permission in data locking to the relevant team(s) so users can see lock states and avoid unintended non-editable cells. Test data entry again.
- Refer to the data locking checkpoints and configuration guidance to ensure locks and permissions are correctly set.
