How To Fix EK864 - &2 entries converted to &3 in client &1

EK864 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: EK - IS-U Accounts Receivable and Payable

• Message number: 864

• Message text: &2 entries converted to &3 in client &1

What causes this issue?

The number of converted entries must be at least equal to the number of
old entries. It may be higher, if there are transactions in the
<LB>TFKTVO</> table that apply to several applications and that are
assigned to internal transactions in <LB>TEIVV</>.

System Response

If fewer entries were converted than existed in the table before
running the XPRA report, then you have to restart the XPRA. The
unconverted entries still exist in the table (with a blank
<LB>APPLK</>).

How to fix this error?

There is at least one main transaction or sub-transaction in the
<LB>TEIVV </> table that is not defined in <LB>TFKTVO</> or
<LB>TFKHVO</>. This transaction needs to be redefined and then the
report can be restarted.
