How To Fix O3310 - SAP routines for natural gas are not activated: Results will be reset

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: O3 - IS-Oil: HPM messages (goods movements, QCI, deliveries)

• Message number: 310

• Message text: SAP routines for natural gas are not activated: Results will be reset

What causes this issue?

The SAP routines for natural gas are not activated. Thus, the system
will not calculate a base density or base heating value using the
formulas delivered with the standard SAP system. You can activate the
formulas in Customizing. You then agree to the conditions specified in
the customizing IMG description for this activity (Transaction O594).

System Response

1) The system will reset the base density and base heating result to
zero. Energy values will be converted into each other regardless of the
fact that their units of measure are specified at different combustion
temperatures. You can utilize Business Add-In OIB_QCI_NATURAL_GAS to
implement you own formula for the calculation.
Use methods CALC_BASE_DENSITY and CALC_BASE_HEATINGVALUE of BAdI
OIB_QCI_NATURAL_GAS to determine the base heating value and density.
Use method CORR_COMBUSTION_ENERGY of BAdI OIB_QCI_NATURAL_GAS to take
into account different combustion temperatures for energy units of
measure.
If you have implemented the AGA c-code routines, the base density can be
calculated by these external program routines.
2) The base heating value and base density in SI units are cleared as
well. You have to activate and implement the method
DENSITY_HVALUE_CONVERT of BAdI OIB_QCI_NATURAL_GAS with your own
conversion formulas in order to calculate these values for natural gas
in SI units. These values are required for the Quantity Conversion
Interface (QCI) if a conversion from one dimension to another is
necessary.
3) The system will reset the ideal gas volume correction factor to zero.
You have to use method CALC_IDEAL_GAS_VCF of BAdI OIB_QCI_NATURAL_GAS in
order to calculate the ideal gas volume correction factor.
