  • What causes this issue?

    At least one new characteristic which is not known in database table
    ACDOCA (Universal Journal Entry Line Items) was added to operating
    concern &V2&. The runtime required to activate the database table is so
    long that it needs to be performed in the background. For this reason,
    the client-independent environment with transaction &V3& cannot be
    executed in the foreground. The step for adding new CO-PA
    characteristics to database table ACDOCA was therefore transferred to
    program &V1&. The client-independent environment can only be fully
    activated without errors after the characteristics are added to database
    table ACDOCA and the database table is activated without errors.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Execute program &V1& for operating concern in the background. When the
    program has been executed without errors, generate the
    client-independent environment for operating concern &V2& again.
    Operating concern &V2& will then be available again.
