CNV_10020434 - Details

• The SAP error message CNV_10020434 indicates that there is an issue with path determination in a conversion process, specifically that the source value for a certain field is initial (empty or not set). This error typically arises during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Data Migration tools or during system conversions.
  
  Cause:
  
  Initial Value: The error suggests that the source value for a specific field (denoted by &2 in the message) is not populated. This could happen if the data being processed does not have a value for that field, which is required for the path determination logic to function correctly.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the migration or conversion process that are not correctly set up, leading to missing values.
  Data Quality Issues: The source data may have quality issues, such as missing or incomplete records, which can lead to initial values being passed to the conversion
