  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMCY103 - Mapping between BW and SAP system field &1 is inconsistent for value &2 ?

    The SAP error message FMCY103 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the mapping between fields in the SAP system and the BW (Business Warehouse) system. This error typically arises when there is a mismatch in the data types, lengths, or values between the two systems for a specific field.

    Cause:

    1. Data Type Mismatch: The data type of the field in the BW system does not match the data type of the corresponding field in the SAP system.
    2. Value Mismatch: The value being transferred or processed does not exist or is not valid in the target field of the SAP system.
    3. Field Length Issues: The length of the data being sent from BW exceeds the maximum length defined in the SAP system for that field.
    4. Configuration Issues: There may be incorrect or incomplete configuration in the mapping settings between BW and the SAP system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Mapping: Review the mapping configuration between the BW and SAP systems. Ensure that the fields are correctly mapped and that the data types and lengths are compatible.
    2. Validate Data Values: Check the specific value mentioned in the error message (&2) to ensure it is valid for the field in the SAP system. If it is not valid, you may need to correct the data in BW or adjust the mapping.
    3. Adjust Field Lengths: If the length of the data exceeds the defined length in the SAP system, consider truncating the data or adjusting the field length in the SAP system if feasible.
    4. Review Configuration: Ensure that all necessary configurations in both systems are complete and correct. This includes checking any transformation rules or data flows that may affect the mapping.
    5. Testing: After making changes, perform tests to ensure that the error does not reoccur and that data is being transferred correctly.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) in BW or SE11 (Data Dictionary) in SAP to check the definitions of the fields.
    • Logs and Traces: Check the logs and traces in both systems for additional details that may help identify the root cause of the inconsistency.
    • SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues related to this error message or provide additional guidance on resolving it.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP community for further assistance.
