  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    The system determined that there are no entries for table &V1& in field
    assignment table EDIMAP. If this is the case, only those dimensions
    will be transferred that exist in segment E1GLTTF (such as business
    area, account, cost center). If your table has customer fields (such as
    project or region), these fields will not be transferred without the
    necessary entries in EDIMAP.

    System Response

    How to fix this error?

    If you do not want to transfer any additional fields, you may continue
    with no problem.
    If you use additional fields, proceed as follows:
    If you work in the central system to which the data is sent, you must
    first maintain the entries in field assignment table EDIMAP with the
    'Update field assignment table' function. Then this information must be
    distributed to all local systems.
    If you work in the local system that sends data to the central system,
    you need to find out why the field assignment rules for table &v1& are
    missing in your system.
