• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV10400653 - Char &1: Domain &2 / Data Element &3 do not exist/not conv. relevant ?

  The SAP error message CNV10400653 typically indicates that there is an issue with a specific character field in the context of a data conversion or migration process. This error suggests that the system is unable to find the specified domain or data element associated with the character field in question.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Existent Domain/Data Element: The domain or data element specified in the error message does not exist in the SAP system. This could be due to a typo, or it may not have been created or activated in the system.
  Incorrect Mapping: During a data migration or conversion process, the mapping of fields may not be correctly defined, leading to references to non-existent domains or data elements.
  Transport Issues: If the domain or data element was supposed to be transported from another system (e.g., development to production) and the transport did not occur successfully, this error may arise.
  Version Compatibility: The data element or domain may exist in a different version of SAP or may have been deprecated in the current version.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existence: Verify that the domain and data element specified in the error message actually exist in the SAP system. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to search for the domain and data element.
  Correct Mapping: If the mapping is incorrect, update the mapping configuration to point to the correct domain or data element.
  Create Domain/Data Element: If the domain or data element does not exist and is required for the conversion, you may need to create it in the system.
  Transport Check: If the domain or data element should exist but does not, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary transports have been successfully imported into the system.
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or notes related to the data migration or conversion process to ensure that all prerequisites are met.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE11 for Data Dictionary, SE80 for Object Navigator, and ST22 for dump analysis if needed.
