SAP Message UPP_PP_K017 - Too many lead columns in planning layout, see long text

Diagnosis
The current planning layout contains &V1& lead columns. In manualplanning, the entry screen can then possibly not be formed when thelayout contains a two-figure number of lead columns and in additionlots of transaction data was selected.
The admissible upper limit for the complexity of lead columns iscalculated as follows:

  • The entry screen can only be formed when the product from the number of
  • characteristic values per lead column (including the values for totalsor hierarchy nodes) is smaller than the figure 1E+31 -1.

    System Response
    Depending on which settings are valid for the selection conditions andthe header characteristics of the layout, the system reacts in one ofthe following ways:

    • If only one single characteristic value combination exists for the
    • characteristics in the header area, then the layout cannot be opened.
      • If several characteristic value combinations exist, then scrolling to
      • such combinations, which do not meet the condition named above, is notpossible.

        Procedure
        Reduce the number of lead columns in the planning layout to a figurethat is appropriate for manual entry. If you want to update othercharacteristics, use the characteristic deviation.
