How To Fix CNVA_20290_CHECK073 - Participating CoCodes have different company codes for number assignment

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CNVA_20290_CHECK - Message class for company code merge preanalysis

• Message number: 073

• Message text: Participating CoCodes have different company codes for number assignment

The participating company codes have different company codes for number
assignment. If there are no mapping values specified for the company
codes for number assignment, the target company code will use the
company code for number assignment of the reference company code. It is
possible to rename company codes for number assignment (for example to
keep the same naming of company code and associated company code for
number assignment). It is also possible to map several company codes for
number assignment to one company code for number assignment. In this
case, after the conversion, all company codes which have the source
company codes for number assignment are assigned to the target company
code for number assignment. If several company codes for number ass
ignment ones are mapped to one company code for number assignment, the
one with the reference indicator inherits the number range definitions.
The source company codes for number assignment are removed unless they
are the target company codes for number assignment.
