How To Fix CNV_20320_CHECK003 - Implicit activity type merge found

CNV_20320_CHECK003 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CNV_20320_CHECK - Messages for check functions (Activity Types merge)

• Message number: 003

• Message text: Implicit activity type merge found

What causes this issue?

An <DS:TX.CNV_MBT_IMPLICIT_MERGE>implicit merge</> into a activity type
was detected. This happens for example when activity types will be
merged, but the mapping only contains a part of the source activity
types.
To avoid unwanted merges, you must specify mapping values for all the
source values of the target activity types. The key of the target is
stored in the context of this message.
You cannot run the transformation solution Controlling Area Merge
because certain prerequisites have not been met. Please change your
mapping accordingly.

  Configuration Issues: Misconfigurations in the system settings related to activity types can also lead to this error.
