Message text: SYST: Error when caclulating fiscal period --> F1
An error occurred while determining the fiscal period &V1& in period
version &V2&.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
There are three things which could lead to this error:
The period version &V2& allocated to the company code has not been
created. In this case, you should create the period version.
The period version has been created, however the allocation of calendar
dates to the fiscal periods has not been correctly performed or in
particular with calendar-dependent period versions has not been
completely performed. Check whether the date entered &V1& for period
version &V2& has been maintained and enter the missing period.
The calendar date &V1& is invalid. This is a system error. Contact your
Systems Specialist.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
