• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_CMIS_G016 - The sender system contains &1 not installed in the receiver system &2 ?

  The SAP error message CNV_CMIS_G016 indicates that there is a mismatch between the sender and receiver systems regarding the installation of a specific component or software. Specifically, it means that the sender system has a component (denoted as &1) that is not installed in the receiver system (denoted as &2). This error typically occurs during data migration or system conversion processes, especially when using tools like SAP's Conversion and Migration tools.
  Cause:
  
  Component Mismatch: The sender system has a specific component or add-on installed that the receiver system lacks. This could be a specific module, enhancement, or configuration that is necessary for the data transfer or migration to proceed.
  Version Differences: The versions of the systems may differ, leading to incompatibility in the components installed.
  Incomplete Installation: The receiver system may not have been fully set up or may be missing certain components that are required for the migration process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Installed Components: Verify the components installed in both the sender and receiver systems. You can do this by using transaction codes like SPAM or SAINT to check for installed add-ons and components.
  Install Missing Components: If the sender system has components that are not present in the receiver system, you will need to install those components in the receiver system. This may involve downloading the necessary software from SAP and following the installation procedures.
  Upgrade Systems: If there are version discrepancies, consider upgrading the receiver system to match the sender system's version or vice versa, depending on your overall system landscape and upgrade strategy.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific components involved to understand their dependencies and requirements.
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is part of a larger migration or conversion project.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SPAM, SAINT, and SICF for managing and checking installed components.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide guidance on component compatibility.
  Migration Tools: If you are using specific migration tools (like SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit), ensure that you are following the recommended procedures and prerequisites outlined in the tool's documentation.
  
  By addressing the component mismatch and ensuring both systems are aligned in terms of installed software, you should be able to resolve the CNV_CMIS_G016 error.
