  • What causes this issue?

    Archiving objects may contain archiving classes. To ensure that
    archiving sessions containing archiving classes will be converted
    consistently, it is necessary to implement a specific SAP Note for
    every relevant archiving class.

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

    System Response

    It was found that the relevant Note for archiving class &V4& was not
    implemented. The indicator for this is that function module &V1& does
    not exist.

    How to fix this error?

    Check in Note 669403 whether there is a correction for archiving class
    &V4& and the relevant Release. If so, implement the relevant Note. If
    necessary, contact SAP.
    &ADDITIONAL_HINTS&
    Note 668491 also contains information on how to check whether the
    relevant archiving session actually contains data from archiving class
    &V4& and whether consequently the Note needs to be implemented or not.
