  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV20551804 - Table assigned with empty deletion criterion &1 was excluded by &2 on &3 ?

    The SAP error message CNV20551804 indicates that a table has been assigned an empty deletion criterion, which means that the system is trying to process a table that does not have any criteria defined for deletion. This can occur during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Data Migration tools or during system conversions.
