  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT394 - You can only maintain tree in original language &1 ?

    The SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT394 indicates that you are trying to maintain a DMEE (Data Medium Exchange Engine) tree in a language that is not the original language of the tree. This error typically occurs when you attempt to edit or maintain a DMEE tree in a language other than the one in which it was originally created.

    Cause:

    • The DMEE tree was created in a specific language (e.g., English, German, etc.), and SAP restricts modifications to that original language to ensure data integrity and consistency.
    • You may have switched the user interface language in your SAP session, which is causing the system to prevent you from making changes to the DMEE tree.

    Solution:

    1. Switch to the Original Language:

      • Log in to your SAP system using the original language in which the DMEE tree was created. You can do this by changing the language parameter in the login screen or by using the /n command followed by the language code (e.g., /nEN for English).
    2. Check the Language of the DMEE Tree:

      • If you are unsure of the original language, you can check the DMEE tree settings or documentation to find out which language was used during its creation.
    3. Create a New Tree in the Desired Language:

      • If you need to maintain the tree in a different language, consider creating a new DMEE tree in that language. You can copy the existing tree and then translate it as needed.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more information on DMEE tree maintenance and language settings.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like DMEE to access the DMEE tree maintenance interface.
    • Language Settings: The language settings in SAP can be adjusted in the user profile or during the login process.
