  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG511 - Structure &1 is assigned to different structures in '&2' and '&3' ?

    The SAP error message DMCLG511 indicates that a structure (denoted as &1) is assigned to multiple different structures in two different contexts (denoted as &2 and &3). This typically occurs in the context of data modeling or data structure definitions within SAP, particularly in the Data Management or Data Warehousing areas.

    Cause:

    1. Duplicate Assignments: The structure is being used in multiple places, leading to conflicts in how it is defined or utilized.
    2. Inconsistent Definitions: The structure may have been modified or defined differently in the two contexts, causing SAP to flag this as an error.
    3. Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), inconsistencies may arise if the structure was not properly synchronized.

    Solution:

    1. Review Structure Assignments: Check the assignments of the structure in both contexts (&2 and &3). Ensure that the structure is consistently defined and used across both.
    2. Modify Assignments: If the structure is indeed required in both contexts, consider creating a new structure or modifying the existing one to avoid conflicts.
    3. Check for Transport Issues: If this error arose after a transport, verify that all related objects were transported correctly and that there are no discrepancies between the systems.
    4. Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or change logs to understand how the structure was modified and whether those changes are valid in both contexts.
    5. Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to analyze the structure definitions and their assignments.

    Related Information:

    • Data Dictionary (SE11): This transaction allows you to view and modify data structures, tables, and other dictionary objects.
    • Transport Management System (STMS): Use this to check if there were any issues during the transport of objects that might have led to this error.
    • SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide guidance on similar issues.
    • Debugging: If necessary, you can debug the program or process that is triggering this error to get more insights into the root cause.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the DMCLG511 error and implement a suitable solution.
