• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M2135 - Field & has different Dtel. in IS definition than in generated structure ?

  The SAP error message M2135 indicates that there is a mismatch between the data element (Dtel.) defined in the Information Structure (IS) and the one that is generated in the structure. This typically occurs during the configuration of information structures in the SAP system, particularly in the context of Logistics Information System (LIS) or other reporting tools.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatch in Data Element Definition: The data element defined in the information structure does not match the data element that is generated in the underlying structure. This can happen if the data element has been changed or modified after the information structure was created.
  Changes in Data Dictionary: If there have been changes in the data dictionary (e.g., changes to the data element or its attributes), it can lead to inconsistencies.
  Incorrect Configuration: The information structure may have been incorrectly configured, leading to discrepancies between the definitions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Element Definitions: Verify the definitions of the data elements in both the information structure and the generated structure. Ensure that they match in terms of data type, length, and other attributes.
  Rebuild the Information Structure: If the definitions are correct but the error persists, you may need to regenerate the information structure. This can be done using transaction code SIS or MC22 (for LIS).
  Adjust the Information Structure: If the data element has been changed, you may need to adjust the information structure to align with the new definition. This may involve modifying the structure or creating a new one if necessary.
  Transport Requests: If changes were made in a development environment, ensure that the transport requests are correctly moved to the production environment, as discrepancies can arise from untransported changes.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific information structure you are working with for any known issues or additional guidance.
