• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /INCMD/MSG348 - Subgroup &1 included in PSP is relevant only for planning ?

  The SAP error message /INCMD/MSG348 Subgroup &1 included in PSP is relevant only for planning typically occurs in the context of project system (PS) and planning scenarios. This error indicates that a specific subgroup (identified by &1) is included in a Project Structure Plan (PSP) but is only relevant for planning purposes, which means it cannot be used in certain operational contexts.
  Cause:
  
  Subgroup Configuration: The subgroup in question is configured in such a way that it is designated for planning only. This means that it cannot be used for actual postings or execution in the project.
  Incorrect Usage: The error may arise if there is an attempt to perform an operation (like posting costs or creating actuals) that is not allowed for that subgroup.
  Project Structure Issues: The project structure may not be set up correctly, leading to conflicts between planning and execution elements.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Subgroup Settings: Check the configuration of the subgroup in the project system. Ensure that it is set up correctly for the intended use. If it is meant to be used for actual postings, consider changing its configuration.
  Use Appropriate Subgroup: If the subgroup is indeed meant for planning only, ensure that you are using the correct subgroup for the operation you are trying to perform. You may need to select a different subgroup that allows for actual postings.
  Adjust Project Structure: If the project structure is not aligned with the intended use of the subgroup, you may need to adjust the PSP or the related project elements to ensure compatibility.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidance on how to handle this error in your particular system setup.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to project system management, such as CJ20N (Project Builder) or CJ02 (Change Project).
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting the operation has the necessary authorizations to work with the specified subgroup and project structure.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP Project System for further assistance.
