• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS854 - Mapping parameter position &1: Mapping to non applicable data object &2 ?

  The SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS854 typically occurs in the context of SAP Data Services or SAP Process Integration (PI) when there is an issue with the mapping of parameters in a data transformation or mapping scenario. This error indicates that there is a mismatch between the expected data object and the actual data object being referenced in the mapping.
  Cause:
  The error message can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  
  Incorrect Mapping: The mapping parameter position specified in the error message does not correspond to a valid or applicable data object. This can happen if the mapping is incorrectly configured or if the data object has been changed or deleted.
  
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The data type of the source and target objects may not be compatible, leading to an inability to map the data correctly.
  
  
  Missing Data Objects: If the data object that is being referenced in the mapping does not exist or is not accessible in the current context, this error can occur.
  
  
  Versioning Issues: If there are multiple versions of the data objects or mappings, it is possible that the wrong version is being referenced.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Mapping Configuration: Review the mapping configuration to ensure that the parameters are correctly defined and that they correspond to valid data objects. Make sure that the mapping is set up correctly for the source and target data structures.
  
  
  Verify Data Objects: Ensure that the data objects being referenced in the mapping exist and are accessible. Check for any changes in the data model that may have affected the mapping.
  
  
  Data Type Compatibility: Verify that the data types of the source and target objects are compatible. If there is a mismatch, you may need to adjust the mapping or convert the data types accordingly.
  
  
  Update Mappings: If there have been changes to the data model or the mappings, update the mappings to reflect these changes. This may involve re-selecting the data objects or adjusting the mapping logic.
  
  
  Test the Mapping: After making the necessary adjustments, test the mapping to ensure that it works as expected without generating the error.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, consult the SAP documentation or support resources for further guidance on the specific error message and its context.
