• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_PE_TPM062 - Parameter &1: decimals &2 (system) vs. decimals &3 (file) ?

  The SAP error message CNV_PE_TPM062 typically occurs during data migration or data transfer processes, particularly when using the SAP Data Migration tools or during the execution of a conversion program. This error indicates a mismatch in the number of decimal places between the data in the source file and the expected format in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error message CNV_PE_TPM062 is triggered when:
  
  The number of decimal places defined in the source file (the file you are trying to import) does not match the number of decimal places expected by the SAP system for the corresponding field.
  For example, if the SAP system expects a field to have 2 decimal places (decimals &3) but the source file has 3 decimal places (decimals &2), this discrepancy will lead to the error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Source File:
  
  Open the source file and verify the number of decimal places for the relevant fields. Ensure that they match the expected format in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Source Data:
  
  If the source file has more decimal places than expected, you may need to round the values or truncate the extra decimal places to match the SAP system's requirements.
  
  
  
  Modify SAP Settings:
  
  If the source data is correct and you need to accommodate more decimal places, you may need to adjust the field settings in the SAP system to allow for the additional decimal places. This may involve changing the data type or field length in the relevant data dictionary objects.
  
  
  
  Use Data Transformation Tools:
  
  If you are using a data migration tool, check if there are options to transform the data during the import process. You may be able to specify how many decimal places to consider.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the documentation for the specific data migration tool or program you are using to see if there are any additional settings or configurations that can help resolve the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, perform a test import to ensure that the error is resolved and that the data is being imported correctly.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Data Migration Tools: Familiarize yourself with the specific SAP data migration tools you are using, such as SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit, SAP Data Services, or LSMW (Legacy System Migration Workbench).
  Field Definitions: Review the field definitions in the SAP system to understand the expected formats and constraints for the data being imported.
  Error Logs: Check the error logs or detailed messages provided by the migration tool for additional context on the error.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the CNV_PE_TPM062 error and implement a solution to successfully import your data into the SAP system.
