  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KF573 - Field & has been deleted from the structure ZAUTHCUST ?

    The SAP error message KF573 indicates that a field has been deleted from a structure, in this case, ZAUTHCUST. This typically occurs when there are changes made to the data structure in the SAP system, such as modifications in the underlying database tables or structures that are used in reports, queries, or other processes.

    Cause:

    1. Field Deletion: The specific field referenced in the error message has been removed from the structure ZAUTHCUST. This could be due to a change in business requirements, a system upgrade, or a modification made by a developer.
    2. Inconsistent Data Model: If the structure is used in various programs, reports, or function modules, the deletion can lead to inconsistencies, causing errors when those programs attempt to access the deleted field.
    3. Custom Development: If ZAUTHCUST is a custom structure, it may have been modified by a developer without updating all dependent objects.

    Solution:

    1. Check Structure Definition: Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) and check the definition of the structure ZAUTHCUST. Verify which fields are currently defined and ensure that the field causing the error is indeed missing.
    2. Update Dependent Objects: If the field has been deleted intentionally, you will need to update any programs, reports, or function modules that reference this field. This may involve:
      • Modifying the code to remove references to the deleted field.
      • Adjusting logic to accommodate the absence of the field.
    3. Restore the Field: If the deletion was unintentional, you may need to restore the field to the structure. This can be done by:
      • Adding the field back to the structure in SE11.
      • Ensuring that the field is correctly defined (data type, length, etc.).
    4. Transport Changes: If changes are made in a development environment, ensure that they are transported to the quality and production environments as necessary.
    5. Testing: After making changes, thoroughly test the affected programs and reports to ensure that they function correctly without the deleted field.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or guidance related to the specific error message or the structure in question.
    • Documentation: Review any documentation related to the changes made to the structure to understand the context of the deletion.
    • Version Control: If you are using version control for your ABAP code, check the history to see when the field was deleted and why.
