• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE_ABA404 - Delimiters are missing; parameter 'Compressed' shall not be set ?

  The SAP error message DMEE_ABA404 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of the DMEE (Data Medium Exchange Engine) format for electronic payments, specifically related to the delimiters in the output file. The error message states that delimiters are missing and that the parameter 'Compressed' should not be set.
  
  Cause:
  
  Missing Delimiters: The DMEE format you are using requires specific delimiters to separate fields in the output file. If these delimiters are not defined or are incorrectly configured, the system will throw this error.
  Compressed Parameter: The 'Compressed' parameter is used to indicate whether the output should be compressed. If this parameter is set to 'X' (indicating compression) while the delimiters are not properly defined, the system will not be able to generate the output correctly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check DMEE Configuration:
  
  Go to the DMEE transaction (transaction code DMEE) and check the configuration for the format you are using.
  Ensure that all required delimiters are defined
