CNV_10020437 - Details

• The SAP error message CNV_10020437 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 null). This error typically arises during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Conversion Tools.
  
  Cause:
  
  Initial Source Value: The error suggests that the source value for the specified field (denoted by &2) is empty or not populated. This can happen if the data being migrated does not have a value for that field, which is required for the path determination logic to function correctly.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the conversion process, such as missing mappings or incorrect settings that lead to the source value being uninitialized.
  Data Quality Issues: The source data may have quality issues, such as missing values or incorrect formats, which can lead to the path determination failing.
