  • What causes this issue?

    Field &V2& or table &V1& is not delivered by SAP. The system assigns the
    conversion routines automatically, based on the data type of the field.
    However, no suitable conversion routine was found for this field.
    Note:
    The assignment of the conversion routine takes into account only
    technical attributes of the conversion-relevant field (data element and

    the data indicated by its data element or domain, the conversion can
    fail (although technically all settings are correct).

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Create an appropriate conversion routine, and assign it to the field.
