How To Fix DPR_FC014 - Make sure that condition &1 is compatible with object category &2

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: DPR_FC - Field Control for Project Management

• Message number: 014

• Message text: Make sure that condition &1 is compatible with object category &2

What causes this issue?

For each condition that SAP delivers in field control, an appropriate
include exists with a schema program that the system uses to generate
the field control class.
Example: The include 'EVAL_CONDS_C001' exists for the condition 'C001'.
<EX>/>EVAL_CI_C001<(><<)>/</>
<EX>,,data: lr_<(>&<)>objectname& type ref to cl_dpr_<(>&<)>objectname&.
</>
<EX>,,data: ls_condition type ts_condition_per_node.</>
<EX>,,* check if object is released</>
<EX>,,lr_<(>&<)>objectname& ?= ir_root_object.</>
<EX>,,if lr_<(>&<)>objectname&->is_released( ) eq cl_dpr_co=>sc_true.</>
<EX>,, ls_condition-condition_value = cl_dpr_co=>sc_true.</>
<EX>,,else.</>
<EX>,, ls_condition-condition_value = cl_dpr_co=>sc_false.</>
<EX>,,endif.</>
<EX>,,ls_condition-node_name = iv_node_name.</>
<EX>,,ls_condition-node = ir_object.</>
<EX>,,ls_condition-condition_id = 'MV_C001'.</>
<EX>,,insert ls_condition into table mt_conditions.</>
<EX>,,/>END<(><<)>/</>
When it generates the field control class, the system replaces the
variable '<NP><(>&<)>objectname<(>&<)>'</> by the appropriate object
category.
Example: When you assign the condition 'C001' to the object category
'DPO' (project definition), the system replaces <NP>'<(>&<)>objectname
<(>&<)>'</> by <NP>'PROJECT_O'</> during generation. Therefore, the
first line from this example would be:
<EX>,,data: lr_PROJECT_O type ref to cl_dpr_PROJECT_O.</>
The object-specific method or value assignment calls used in the
implementation must be valid for the object category.
Example: The following is an example of the coding generated for the
object category 'DPO':
<EX>,,lr_PROJECT_O ?= ir_root_object.</>
<EX>,,if lr_PROJECT_O->is_released( ) eq cl_dpr_co=>sc_true.</>
The corresponding method <NP>lr_PHASE_T->is_released()</> does not exist
for the object 'PPT' (phase in template) because this would cause a
syntax error in the generated class.

System Response

The system cannot automatically check whether the condition is
compatible with the object category.
If the assignments are incompatible, the system generates a syntax error
or the program may terminate when the field control class or its usage
is generated in the application.

How to fix this error?

Check the schema program to see if it is compatible with the object
category.
If the program terminates, check your field control settings and field
control classes.
If the selected condition is not compatible with the object category,
create a customer-specific condition and assign it to the object
category (see SAP Note 947936).
