  • What causes this issue?

    For table &V1& "Sum all CURR and QUAN fields" was chosen as the type of
    duplicate processing . However, the table contains no fields to be
    summed up (of type 'CURR' or 'QUAN').

    System Response

    Status is set to 'Error'.

    How to fix this error?

    Configure the duplicate processing method correctly.
    If 'Ignore duplicate entries' is not the desired method of duplicate
    handling analyze the table and its contents to find out which method is
    suitable for conversion of this table.
    If you want to aggregate some fields of the table (also sum them up if
    their type is numeric but neither 'QUAN' nor 'CURR') then you should use
    duplicate processing with 'Aggregate routine' in combination with an
    appropriate aggregate value for all fields you want to aggregate.
    If you want to have full flexibility of deciding which entry should
    remain in the database in case of duplicates you should choose 'Priority
    routine' duplicate handling and define appropriate priority routine.
    'Priority handling' also allows chosen fields to be aggregated.
