• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE362 - Node &1: delayed output of segment; no subnodes allowed ?

  The SAP error message DMEE362 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of the Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE) in SAP, specifically related to the structure of the output segments in the DMEE tree. The message states that a node (segment) is delayed, and it cannot have subnodes.
  Cause:
  The error typically occurs when:
  
  A segment in the DMEE tree is defined as a "delayed" segment, which means it is expected to be outputted at a later point in the file generation process.
  The configuration of the DMEE tree incorrectly includes subnodes (child nodes) under a delayed segment, which is not allowed. Delayed segments should not have any subnodes.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DMEE362 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the DMEE Tree Structure:
  
  Go to the DMEE transaction (usually transaction code DMEE).
  Open the relevant DMEE tree that is causing the error.
  Identify the segment that is marked as delayed.
  
  
  
  Review Segment Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the delayed segment does not have any subnodes. If it does, you will need to either:
  
  Remove the subnodes from the delayed segment.
  Move the subnodes to a different segment that is not delayed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Adjust Segment Properties:
  
  If necessary, adjust the properties of the segments to ensure that the hierarchy is correct and complies with the DMEE rules.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the DMEE tree by generating the output file again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Support:
  
  If you are unsure about the changes or if the problem persists, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for further assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  DMEE Documentation: SAP provides documentation on how to configure DMEE trees, including guidelines on segment types and their properties.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance related to DMEE configurations.
  Community Forums: SAP Community and other forums can be helpful for finding similar issues faced by other users and their solutions.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the DMEE362 error and ensure that your DMEE configuration is correct.
