How To Fix CNV_20100239 - Priority control does not work with merge to primary CostEl &2 in CoAr &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CNV_20100 - Messageclass for chart of account conversion

• Message number: 239

• Message text: Priority control does not work with merge to primary CostEl &2 in CoAr &3

What causes this issue?

When checking the set prio indicators, the system found that the
priority indicator was set only once (which is correct) for all merges
to target cost element &V2& in the mapping table.
The priority indicator is set for the mapping &V1& -> &V2&
Cost element &V1& is a primary cost element.
Source cost element &V1& does not exist in controlling area &V3&, but at
least two other cost elements are merged into target cost element &V2&.

System Response

As source cost element &V1& (for which the priority indicator is set)
does not exist in controlling area &V3&, it is not clear which settings
will take priority when the other cost elements in this controlling area
are merged into target cost element &V2&.

How to fix this error?

If required, execute the activity <ZK>Maintain B Segment Merge</>s to
explicitly specify the source cost element for controlling area &V3&
whose B segment settings you want to use for target cost element &V2&.
&ADDITIONAL_HINTS&
Note that the priority indicator must not be set more than <ZH>once
</>for all merges to a given target account. This is also valid for
cross-chart of accounts merges.
The super priority is only useful for tables whose key contains the
chart of accounts, but no other field that needs to be converted in a
chart of accounts conversion, such as account assignment (table T030 and
others).
Note also that even if a <DS:TX.CNV_20100_TX_SUPERPRIO>super priority</>
was defined at chart of accounts level it is still not clear which
settings (from which account/cost element) will prevail during a merge
to a given target if <ZH>more than one</> account/cost element from the
<ZH>same</> chart of accounts is merged into this target.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20100239 - Priority control does not work with merge to primary CostEl &2 in CoAr &3 ?

  The SAP error message CNV_20100239 typically occurs during the data migration process, particularly when using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or similar tools. This error is related to the priority control mechanism in the context of merging cost elements in the migration process.
  Cause:
  The error message indicates that there is an issue with the priority control when trying to merge cost elements into a primary cost element. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Incompatible Cost Elements: The cost elements being merged may not be compatible with the primary cost element due to differences in their configuration or usage.
  Incorrect Mapping: There may be an issue with how the cost elements are mapped during the migration process.
  Data Integrity Issues: There could be underlying data integrity issues in the source system that prevent the successful merging of cost elements.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Cost Element Configuration: Review the configuration of the cost elements involved in the merge. Ensure that they are compatible and correctly set up in the system.
  
  
  Review Mapping: Verify the mapping of cost elements in the migration cockpit. Ensure that the source cost elements are correctly mapped to the target primary cost element.
  
  
  Data Validation: Perform a data validation check on the source data to identify any inconsistencies or issues that may be causing the error. This may involve checking for duplicate entries or incorrect data types.
  
  
  Adjust Priority Control Settings: If applicable, review the priority control settings in the migration tool. Ensure that they are set correctly to allow for the merging of cost elements.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or notes related to the migration process for any specific guidelines or troubleshooting steps related to this error.
