  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

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

    With evaporation or absorption, the substance that is specified in the
    environment parameter
    <DS:TX.RMS_IMG_ENV-FRML_DEF_EVAP_SU>FRML_DEF_EVAP_SUBID</> in
    Customizing for <LS>Recipe Management</> is yielded or absorbed. The
    system takes this substance into account when determining the
    composition.
    Examples:
    In a formula, 10 liters evaporate. 20 liters of the evaporation
    substance go into the formula. 10 liters of the evaporation substance
    are then left in the composition.
    In a formula, 20 liters evaporate. 10 liters of the evaporation
    substance go into the formula. 10 liters of evaporation substance then
    remain that cannot be offset against any substance item and are
    therefore displayed in the composition as evaporation.
    If no substance from the evaporation or absorption exists in the formula
    or if all items of this substance are zero in the formula, the system
    cannot offset the evaporation or absorption against the corresponding
    substance items.

    System Response

    To avoid a division by zero, the system terminates the evaporation
    calculation and does not change the specified evaporation in the
    composition.
    In the <LS>Composition</> and <LS>Ingredients</> formula views, the
    system converts the evaporation to a negative input item. This enables
    you to transfer the calculated data to the data that is to be entered
    manually.

    How to fix this error?

    If required, add the substance for evaporation or absorption to the
    relevant input items.
