GU974 - Details

• The SAP error message GU974 indicates that the tables you are trying to convert are not installed in the current client. This typically occurs during a data migration or system upgrade process when the system expects certain tables to be present but cannot find them.
  
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Tables: The tables that are supposed to be converted or migrated do not exist in the client you are working on. This could be due to:
  
  The tables were never created in that client.
  The tables were deleted or not properly transported.
  The client is not set up correctly for the conversion process.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Client: You might be working in the wrong client where the necessary tables are not installed.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the tables were supposed to be transported from another client or system, there may have been an issue with the transport process.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Client Configuration: Ensure that you are in the correct client where the tables should exist.
