SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: 70 - HR: Messages in Master Data Reporting

• Message number: 048

• Message text: Table T500C: Display only. (For more information, see 'Help')

What causes this issue?

You want to maintain or transport entries in table T500C manually.
However, table T500C must not be manually converted in the context of
the currency changeover of the European Monetary Union (EMU).

System Response

The processing mode you requested is rejected, and you are offered
display mode instead.

How to fix this error?

To perform the euro changeover, use the corresponding changeover
report.
In the implementation guide you can find this under: Cross-Application
Components --> European Monetary Union: Euro --> Changeover of Human
Resources --> Currency Changeover --> Payroll --> Perform Changeover
for Payroll Currency.
You want to make changes in table T500C that have nothing to do with
the currency changeover in the context of the EMU.
In that case, use transaction OE00, which takes you directly to table
maintenance for table T500C. Only make changes here that are not made
automatically as part of the currency changeover report.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
