How To Fix KR317 - Enter an object number set

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KR - Archiving Reports and Utilities

• Message number: 317

• Message text: Enter an object number set

What causes this issue?

You want to archive line items for reconciliation objects or you have
not entered an object type. To select the objects for which the line
items are to be archived you entered group &V1&. However, this group is
not a general object number set.

How to fix this error?

Check the following alternatives:
Have you entered the correct object type?
If you want to archive reconciliation object line items, you must enter
"REC" as the object type. If you want to archive line items from
different object types (e.g. reconciliation objects and cost centers)
in one session, you should not enter an object type.
Have you made a typing mistake?
A group with a similar name might exist that has a different reference
(e.g. cost center group). Check that &V1& is really the required group.
Do you want to process all reconciliation objects?
In this case you should leave the "Group" field blank. If you do not
enter a group, all the line items for reconciliation objects that meet
the other conditions will be archived. Other conditions could be, for
example, the chosen controlling area or the residence times.
Do you want to process just certain reconciliation objects or certain
objects but for differing object types?
Then you must create a general object number set (a set for field
CCSS-OBJNR). We do not, however, recommend this alternative.
