SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: G0 - Messages for SAP Consolidation

• Message number: 138

• Message text: Assignment &2/KU &3 to download CG &1: invalid in target dimension

What causes this issue?

Selection criteria for the dowload of reported financial data are
defined for consolidation group &V1&. One set of criteria contains the
cons group &V2& and the cons unit &V3&. However, one or both of these
organization units do not exist in the target dimension &V4&. The
criteria are therefore invalid in that dimension.

System Response

Consolidation group &V1& will be copied along with the valid download
settings. The invalid set of criteria for the download of financial
data will not be copied.

How to fix this error?

You can only copy all the settings if both cons group &V2& and cons
unit &V3& are created in dimension &V4& or copied to this dimension.
You can do this by rerunning the copy program. On the selection screen,
select the indicator "Existing settings: Do not change", cons group
&V2& and cons unit &V3&. Otherwise use the same criteria as for the
last run.
