SAP Note

Header Data

Symptom

You use a layout for the manual planning for which in the planning profile Integrated Excel is activated. Although you change values in the corresponding sheet, the system outputs message K8038 'No planning data has been changed' after saving the sheet.

Other Terms

KP26, KP46, CJR2, KPF6, K8038

Reason and Prerequisites

You use an own planning layout.

Solution

The columns are set as "not ready-for-input" in the planning layout. When you use Excel this is not indicated with a color and you cannot deactive the cells, as you can in the normal planning screen. At the most an Excel dialog box is displayed in which you are requested to unprotect the sheet by choosing "Tools -> Protection" in the Excel menu. With this function you can make all Excel cells ready-for-input. When saving the R/3 data, however, the actual ready-for-input status from the layout is decisive. This results in the irritating symptom. Call the transaction for changing the layout (for example KP66, KP76, KP86). Set the cursor onto the respective column header and choose menu "Formatting -> Ready for input y/n". The data field under the column header should now be displayed brighter. After you made all relevant columns ready for input, you can use the planning transaction.
