  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE682 - The internal field table for operating concern & was not created ?

    The SAP error message KE682 indicates that the internal field table for a specific operating concern has not been created. This error typically arises in the context of Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) when the system is trying to access or process data related to an operating concern that has not been properly set up.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Configuration: The operating concern may not have been fully configured. This includes missing settings for characteristics, value fields, or other related configurations.
    2. Transport Issues: If the operating concern was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process that prevented the internal field table from being created.
    3. Database Issues: There could be underlying database issues that prevent the creation of the internal field table.
    4. Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations may prevent the system from accessing or creating the necessary tables.

    Solution:

    1. Check Configuration:

      • Go to the configuration settings for the operating concern in transaction KEO1 (Create Operating Concern) or KEO2 (Change Operating Concern).

    2. Recreate the Internal Field Table:

      • If the operating concern was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate issues during the transport process.
