  • Message text: Extension content potentially unneeded, but storage active for area &2

  • What causes this issue?

    In the transformation rules called within this transfer method &V1&, no
    extension parameter of type table is present as input parameter in the
    signature.
    In the knowledgebase for transfer method &V1&, no extension parameter is
    defined as sender parameter.
    As both aspects are valid, then for this transfer method - during the
    build up of the transfer list - it is not required to import the
    extension content of each worklist item from the respective DB table.
    To make the extension content available at all for import it must be
    stored in a respective database table during the creation of the
    worklist. This is indicated by the <ZK>Store Extension</> indicator on
    area level. This storage is not required for this transfer method as
    potentially stored data is not imported anyway into any transformation
    rule of the transfer method.
    Nevertheless it is possible that further transfer methods are existing
    in area &V2&. (Transfer method &V1& belongs to area &V2&). These further
    transfer methods may in fact need an import of the extension content
    during the build up of the transfer list.

    System Response

    It is possible that the respective extension table is directly accessed
    within the source code of a transformation rule or in any customer
    programs. This cannot be checked automatically. Therefore the storage of
    extension content is not deactivated, if it has ever been activated
    before.
    Deactivating the storage of the extension content (on area level) and
    importing the extension content will however decrease the processing
    time.
    The program found that the storage of extension content is active in
    area &V2&, despite of the fact that the extension content might not
    needed.

    How to fix this error?

    If you are unsatisfied with the performance of <ZK>build up of worklist
    </>and <ZK>build up of the transfer list</>, then check whether
    deactivating the <ZK>Store Extension</> indicator in area &V2& is
    possible.
