Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV20551036 - Jobs for test run are created; no data gets deleted during the run ?

  The SAP error message CNV20551036 indicates that during a test run of a data migration or conversion job, the system has created jobs, but no actual data is being deleted. This message is typically associated with the SAP S/4HANA migration process or data conversion activities.
  Cause:
  
  Test Run Configuration: The job is configured to run in test mode, which means it simulates the deletion process without actually removing any data. This is a common practice to ensure that the process works correctly before executing it in a production environment.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria defined for the data deletion might not match any records in the database, leading to no data being selected for deletion.
  Data Locking: There may be locks on the data that prevent it from being deleted during the test run.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the job may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the data, even in a test run.
  Job Configuration: The job might not be configured correctly, leading to no data being processed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Job Configuration: Review the configuration of the job to ensure that it is set up correctly and that the selection criteria are appropriate for the data you intend to delete.
  Run in Production Mode: If you are confident in the configuration and want to proceed with actual data deletion, you can run the job in production mode (make sure to back up data before doing this).
  Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the selection criteria used for the deletion process are correct and that they match the records you expect to delete.
  Check for Locks: Investigate if there are any locks on the data that might prevent deletion. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
  Authorization Check: Verify that the user executing the job has the necessary authorizations to perform the deletion.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific migration or conversion process you are working on for any additional guidance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.

  Testing Procedures: Always perform thorough testing in a non-production environment before executing data deletion jobs in production to avoid unintended data loss.
