• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message NSDM_MIG_CONTROL196 - Fill extract/perfy not executed (predecessor group prc. not finished) ?

  The SAP error message NSDM_MIG_CONTROL196 indicates that the extraction or performance of a specific process (in this case, "Fill extract/perfy") has not been executed because a predecessor group process has not been completed. This error typically arises in the context of data migration or data extraction processes, particularly when using SAP Data Migration tools or SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit.
  Cause:
  
  
  Predecessor Process Not Completed: The most common cause of this error is that a required predecessor process or task has not been completed successfully. This could be due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Errors in the predecessor task.
  The predecessor task is still running or has not been triggered.
  Dependencies between tasks are not properly configured.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the migration project or data extraction settings that prevent the predecessor task from completing.
  
  
  Data Issues: If the predecessor task involves data validation or transformation, issues with the data itself (e.g., missing or incorrect data) can prevent the task from completing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Predecessor Task Status: 
  
  Review the status of the predecessor task in the migration cockpit or data migration tool. Ensure that it has completed successfully.
  If it has failed, investigate the error logs to identify the cause and resolve any issues.
  
  
  
  Run Predecessor Task: 
  
  If the predecessor task has not been executed, manually trigger it to ensure it completes before proceeding with the "Fill extract/perfy" task.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration: 
  
  Check the configuration settings for the migration project to ensure that all dependencies and prerequisites are correctly set up.
  
  
  
  Data Validation: 
  
  Validate the data being processed to ensure there are no issues that could cause the predecessor task to fail.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or guides related to the specific migration or extraction process you are using for additional troubleshooting steps.
