Problem Note 56833: An IPC_CONNECTION_BROKEN and IPC_CORRUPTED_DATA exception might occur in an allocation worksheet

DetailsAboutRate It

In SAS® Merchandise Allocation, an IPC_CONNECTION_BROKEN and IPC_CORRUPTED_DATA exception might be generated with exception details similar to the following in the log: 

ERROR com.sas.retail.merchplan.mecommon.Connection  - java.io.IOException: An existing
connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

This exception is generated when performing different functions in an allocation worksheet such as recalculations, edits, or copying and pasting data. Once the exception is generated, you are forced to close and reopen the worksheet, which results in the loss of data.

There is no workaround for this issue.
