SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CM_REPORT_GEN - Report Generation

• Message number: 020

• Message text: Condition symbol &1 has multiple values assigned

What causes this issue?

With the report symbol &V1&, which is used in the comparison operation
of a conditional output, a multiple value assignment for a
characteristic is output. Characteristics with multiple value
assignments cannot be compared with a predefined value. This leads to a
warning in report generation.

System Response

Report generation is continued; the value <LS>false</> is assumed for
the condition check that cannot be executed.
A created report is posted with the status <LS>Generated with Warning
</> (GW).

How to fix this error?

We recommend configuring the report template to prevent the comparison
of a symbol that has multiple value assignments with a single value
during report generation.
In checking a report template, the warning <DS>
<DS:NA.CM_REPORT_TEMPLATE171>CM_REPORT_TEMPLATE171</></> is issued for
every conditional output where the danger exists that a comparison is
not permissible. You should configure these conditional outputs.
