G3698 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: G3 - Messages for SAP Consolidation: Integration

• Message number: 698

• Message text: No field found for subitem cat &1 (sender field &2) in sender table &3

What causes this issue?

An operational totals record is allocated to a financial statement
item, which requires a breakdown by a subitem category with fixed value
&V1&. The master record of the latter shows the value &V2& as the
sender field for the subitem. However, the system cannot identify such
a field in sender table &V3&.

System Response

No subitem will be transferred for the data records involved. The
subitem will be set to the default value if the breakdown type permits
this for the characteristic "subitem".

How to fix this error?

If the sender table really contains a field, from which the subitems
are to be transferred for subitem category &V1&, then you should inform
the system about this sender field. To do this, use Exit 230 in
enhancement FMC10011. For more information, see the documentation for
the enhancement, the Exit 230, or SAP Note 304525.

Procedure for System Administrators

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