How To Fix IR222 - Measurement reading transfer is still active

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IR - PM: IMRC - Measurement Readings and Counters

• Message number: 222

• Message text: Measurement reading transfer is still active

What causes this issue?

You want to deactivate <DS:GLOS.measuring_point>measuring point</> &V1&
.
However, a valid transfer relationship currently exists for measurement
or counter readings for the measuring point.

System Response

For reasons of consistency, deactivation can only prevent the direct
entry of measurement or counter readings for the respective measuring
point.
Whether a measurement reading transfer takes place is solely dependent
on whether a valid transfer relationship exists for the measuring time.

How to fix this error?

End the transfer relationship still valid for measuring point &V1& if
necessary. The transfer relationships are maintained automatically when
the object structure is changed, for example, when equipment is
installed or dismantled.
However, you can also end a transfer relationship manually in the
master data maintenance of the receiving measuring point.

Procedure for System Administrators

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