CNV_OT_APPL_PE062 - Details

• The SAP error message CNV_OT_APPL_PE062 indicates that there is a conflict between the Profit Center Accounting (EC-PCA) and the New General Ledger (New G/L) in your SAP system. This error typically arises during data migration or when trying to execute certain transactions that involve profit center accounting while the New G/L is active.

  Incompatibility: The error occurs because the system is trying to access or process data related to Profit Center Accounting (EC-PCA) while the New G/L is already active. The New G/L does not support the classic Profit Center Accounting (EC-PCA) as it has its own integrated profit center functionality.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings that are not aligned with the New G/L setup, leading to this error.
  Data Migration: If you are in the process of migrating data from an older version of SAP or from a different system, there may be inconsistencies in how profit centers are defined
