  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_PE224 - Worklist item already exists; insertion into worklist not possible ?

    The SAP error message CNV_PE224 indicates that there is an attempt to insert a worklist item into a conversion worklist, but the item already exists. This typically occurs in the context of data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Conversion Tools or Data Migration tools.

    Cause:

    1. Duplicate Entry: The most common cause of this error is that the worklist item you are trying to insert already exists in the worklist. This can happen if the same data is being processed multiple times or if there is a logic error in the data migration process.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the migration tool or the parameters being used, leading to attempts to insert duplicate entries.
    3. Data Integrity Issues: If the source data has duplicates or if there are inconsistencies in the data being migrated, this can lead to attempts to insert the same item multiple times.

    Solution:

    1. Check for Duplicates: Review the worklist to see if the item already exists. You can do this by querying the worklist table or using the appropriate transaction code in SAP.
    2. Modify the Data: If duplicates are found in the source data, you may need to clean or preprocess the data to ensure that only unique entries are being migrated.
    3. Adjust Migration Logic: If the migration logic is causing duplicates, you may need to adjust the logic to prevent the same item from being processed multiple times.
    4. Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes like LTMC (for Migration Cockpit) or LTMOM (for Migration Object Modeler) to manage and monitor the migration process effectively.
    5. Error Handling: Implement error handling in your migration scripts or processes to catch and log duplicate entries before they cause an error.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific migration tool you are using.
    • Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for the migration tool to understand the expected behavior and configuration settings.
    • Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or support channels for additional insights and solutions from other users who may have encountered similar issues.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the CNV_PE224 error and successfully manage your worklist items during the data migration process.
