  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV20410036 - Table &1 (source) does not exist, but table &2 (target) exists ?

    The SAP error message CNV20410036 indicates that during a data migration or conversion process, the system is unable to find a specified source table (denoted as &1) while a corresponding target table (denoted as &2) exists. This error typically arises in the context of data migration projects, especially when using SAP's tools for data transfer or conversion, such as the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or other data migration tools.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Source Table: The source table (&1) may not exist in the database. This could be due to:

      • The table was not created or populated in the source system.
      • The table was deleted or renamed.
      • There is a typo in the table name specified in the migration configuration.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The migration or conversion configuration may be incorrectly set up, pointing to a non-existent source table.

    3. Data Model Changes: If the source system has undergone changes (e.g., upgrades, modifications), the expected source table may have been altered or removed.

    Solution:

    1. Verify Source Table: Check the source system to confirm whether the table &1 exists. You can do this by:

      • Using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to look for the table.
      • Running SQL queries directly on the database if you have access.
    2. Correct Configuration: If the table does not exist, you may need to:

      • Adjust the migration configuration to point to the correct source table.
      • Ensure that the data model aligns with the migration requirements.
    3. Data Preparation: If the source table is indeed missing, you may need to:

      • Create the table in the source system if it is required for the migration.
      • Populate the table with the necessary data before attempting the migration again.
    4. Consult Documentation: Review the migration documentation or guides provided by SAP for any specific requirements regarding the source and target tables.

    5. Check for Notes and Updates: Look for any SAP Notes or updates related to the migration tool you are using, as there may be known issues or patches that address this error.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Search the SAP Support Portal for relevant notes that might provide additional context or solutions for this specific error.
    • Migration Tools: Familiarize yourself with the specific migration tool you are using, as each may have its own set of requirements and configurations.
    • Community Forums: Consider checking SAP Community forums or other user groups for similar issues encountered by other users and their solutions.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
