How To Fix MC054 - The value of the U/L flag does not fit the domain of the data element

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: MC - Aggregate: views, matchcodes, lock objects

• Message number: 054

• Message text: The value of the U/L flag does not fit the domain of the data element

What causes this issue?

In transparent matchcode IDs, the contents of the uppercase/lowercase
flag depends on the domain of the corresponding data element,
i.e. if the domain permits uppercase/lowercase, the U/L flag must
also be set. Otherwise the matchcode search will not function properly.
Unfortunately, in previous versions it was possible to change the value
of the U/L flag and the corresponding domain was not checked.

System Response

The system found an inconsistency between the value of the U/L flag and
the corresponding domain.

How to fix this error?

Change to change mode. The system automatically sets the correct value
in the U/L flag. Save the change. The matchcode ID must be activated
again.
