How To Fix GA408 - Check the integrated master data for field &.

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: GA - Allocations

• Message number: 408

• Message text: Check the integrated master data for field &.

What causes this issue?

During checks of integrated master data (table T800D) for fields used in
allocation, the system determined that the entry in field &v1& is
missing or incorrect.

System Response

Because each field used in assessment/distribution normally has an entry
stored in the integrated master data (user exit in program SAPLGUMD or
the FI-SL master data table), it could be that assessment/distribution
does not function properly due to the incorrect field &V1&.

How to fix this error?

Correct the entry using the view "Change Integrated Master Data"
(V_T800D) by entering a correct entry in &v1&.
Note: Choose the F4 Help for the "Exit/Table" field to select an
existing standard exit for the domain.
