System Response

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

How to fix this error?

The error does not necessarily have to be corrected during the upgrade
run. It can also be corrected later on through the application
(application-specific knowledge is usually required).
You can therefore continue the upgrade run without directly correcting
the error.
Please report the noted errors to the person responsible for the
Logistics Information System (Sales Information System, Purchasing
Information System, Inventory Controlling, etc.). It is essential that
the errors are corrected <ZH>before</> the production startup of the
operative application.
Procedure for rectifying the error:
Please check whether the updating definition already existed in the 2.2
source system (transaction MC25, MC26 - please note the clients!). If
this is not the case, you can ignore the error message.
If the updating definition exists in the source system, then you need
to find out why the table entries were not transported into the 3.0
target system. The table entries can also be transported later using
the normal transport tool. After the transport has been completed, the
update can be regenerated by using transaction MC25. It is not
necessary then to start the XPRA run again.
