What causes this issue?

Business partners belonging to an external target group are imported in
blocks, i.e. business partners are read and stored in blocks. Such
blocks are transferred to the CRM System in a table. In a further
parameter, the external system transfers the number of business
partners in this block (same as the number of lines in the table).
CRM has now found that the number of business partners in this block
(&V1&) does not match the number of lines in the transferred table (&V2&
).

System Response

The system corrects the returned number of business parnters in this
block (&V1&) using the value &V2& = number of lines in the returned
table.
