Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT707 - Node &1: Avoid using exit module and conversion function simultaneously ?

  The SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT707 indicates that there is a conflict in the configuration of the Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE) format. Specifically, it arises when both an exit module and a conversion function are used simultaneously in the same node of the DMEE tree structure. This is not allowed because it can lead to ambiguity in how data is processed.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Conflict: The error occurs when a node in the DMEE tree is configured to use both an exit module (a custom ABAP function that can manipulate data) and a conversion function (a built-in function that transforms data types or formats).
  Incorrect Node Setup: The node may have been incorrectly set up to include both types of processing, which is not supported.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to modify the DMEE configuration:
  
  Identify the Node: Check the node mentioned in the error message (Node &1) in your DMEE tree structure.
  Review Configuration: Open the DMEE format and navigate to the specified node. Look for any exit modules and conversion functions that are configured.
  Remove One of the Options:
  
  If you need to use an exit module, remove any conversion functions from that node.
  If you need to use a conversion function, remove any exit modules from that node.
  
  
  Test the Configuration: After making the necessary changes, save the configuration and test the DMEE format to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  Related Information:
  
  DMEE Overview: The Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE) is used in SAP to create payment files in various formats for electronic payments.
  Exit Modules: These are custom ABAP functions that allow for complex data manipulations that are not possible with standard DMEE functions.
  Conversion Functions: These are predefined functions in DMEE that allow for simple data type conversions (e.g., converting a date format).
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for DMEE for more detailed information on configuring nodes and understanding the available functions.
  
  By ensuring that each node in the DMEE tree uses either an exit module or a conversion function, but not both, you can avoid this error and ensure smooth processing of payment formats.
