Unable to Initialize the Plannig Area

Question

Hello,
While initializing the planning area for DP, we are getting the below error.
Job started
Step 001 started (program /SAPAPO/TS_PAREA_INITIALIZE, variant &0000000000017
ABAP/4 processor: DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR
Job cancelled
When checking the consistency of planning area through /SAPAPO/TSCONS - Consistency Check for Time Series it gives the below message
I checked the storage profile already exist.
Error 1
Storage buckets profile check
Message no. /SAPAPO/TSM422
Diagnosis
There are errors with the storage buckets profile
Procedure
This error usually only occurs if changes are made to the the fiscal year variant being used. If this is the case; to remove this error, undo the changes you made to the fiscal year variant. Alternatively, you can deactivate and then reactivate the planning area.
The error cannot be removed with this report.
Error 2
No valid storage buckets profile exists
Message no. /SAPAPO/TSM235
Diagnosis
No valid storage buckets profile exists. The storage buckets profile must also exist in LiveCache.
Procedure
Before creating a planning area you have to create a storage buckets profile.
Check that the storage buckets profile that has been assigned still exists, it may have been deleted. If it exists, it probably no longer exists in LiveCache. To correct this you must deinitialize the version in which this error occurs and then reinitialize it.
I also checked the consistency between DB & Livecache for DP Time series through SAPAPO/OM17 and found no inconsitencies

Hi,
Sometimes planning period might be upto 2012 and fiscal year variant maintained upto 2011. Then it will be problem to assign the period from the Fiscal year variant which is assigned in the Storage bucket profile (/SAPAPO/TR32).
Please check your fiscal year variant assignment in storage bucket profle and check the fiscal year period maintained in the OB29 transaction.
