  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_20100640 - Table COES does not contain any relevant entries ?

    The SAP error message CNV_20100640 indicating that "Table COES does not contain any relevant entries" typically arises during data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or other data migration tools. This error suggests that the system is attempting to access the COES table (which stores CO object entries) but finds no relevant data to process.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Data: The COES table may not have been populated with the necessary data due to prior steps in the migration process not being executed correctly.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the migration might not be set up properly, leading to the system not being able to find the relevant entries.
    3. Data Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used to filter data for migration may be too restrictive, resulting in no entries being found.
    4. Data Transfer Issues: There may have been issues during the data transfer from the legacy system to the SAP system, leading to missing entries in the COES table.

    Solution:

    1. Check Data Population: Verify that the COES table has been populated with the necessary data. You can do this by executing a simple SQL query or using transaction codes like SE11 or SE16 to view the contents of the COES table.
    2. Review Migration Steps: Ensure that all previous steps in the migration process have been completed successfully. This includes checking for any errors in earlier phases that might have prevented data from being written to the COES table.
    3. Adjust Selection Criteria: If applicable, review and adjust the selection criteria used in the migration process to ensure that it is not overly restrictive.
    4. Consult Migration Logs: Check the migration logs for any warnings or errors that might provide additional context on why the COES table is empty.
    5. Data Consistency Checks: Perform data consistency checks to ensure that all necessary data from the legacy system has been correctly mapped and transferred to the SAP system.
    6. Re-run Migration: If necessary, re-run the migration process after addressing any identified issues.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to inspect the COES table.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address known issues related to this error message.
    • Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for the specific migration tool you are using, as it may provide additional insights or troubleshooting steps.
