  The SAP error message /ATL/PCN874013 Err-No record type is maintained typically indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of record types in the system. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to the handling of data records in specific applications or modules.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Configuration: The error usually arises when the system expects a certain record type to be defined in the configuration, but it is not found. This could be due to:
  
  The record type not being created or activated in the system.
  Incorrect settings in the customizing or configuration tables.
  A mismatch between the expected record type and what is available in the system.
  
  
  
  Data Entry Issues: If users are trying to enter data that requires a specific record type that has not been set up, this error can occur.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, it’s possible that the record type was not included in the transport request.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant customizing transaction (e.g., SPRO) and navigate to the area where record types are defined.
  Ensure that the required record type is created and properly configured.
  
  
  
  Create/Activate Record Type:
  
  If the record type does not exist, create it using the appropriate transaction code (e.g., OX15 for document types).
  If it exists but is inactive, activate it.
  
  
  
  Review Data Entry:
  
  Ensure that users are entering data correctly and that they are selecting the appropriate record type that exists in the system.
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects, including record types, were included in the transport request.
