How To Fix IMG_CONS043 - Replace Transaction OH00 with SM30 with View Variant

IMG_CONS043 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IMG_CONS - Messages for IMG_CONS Checkman

• Message number: 043

• Message text: Replace Transaction OH00 with SM30 with View Variant

&WHAT_FOR&
The transaction OH00 can no longer be used, because our customers cannot
use some Basis tools (e.g. Compare and Adjust Tables, BC Sets) for the
IMG activities.
The transaction OH00 reduced the set of table entries displayed for
subset fields (see the 'View Field Maintenance Attribute' field in DDIC
in SE54 for a view), possibly depending on a value in the subobject of
the maintenance object, when an IMG activity runs.

How to fix this error?

Replace the transaction OH00 by SM30 in the IMG activity maintenance
object, and set the 'Skip Subset Dialog Box' field.
If the number of table entries when performing the IMG activity can, or
should, be reduced (e.g. if a value for a subset field of the view was
specified in the subobject), a view variant must be created for the view
in SE54. The view name in the maintenance object in the IMG activity
must then be replaced by the view variant name in SIMGH. Enter the name
of the view variant in the field 'Customizing Object'. No value need be
entered in the field 'Subobject' .
&HOW_DOES_IT_WORK&
SM30 only selects the table entries whose field values match specified
SET/GET parameters and satisfy the values in the view variant.

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