• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OIU_MASS_UPLOAD194 - MP number must be blank when MP is internally generated ?

  The SAP error message OIU_MASS_UPLOAD194 indicates that there is an issue with the MP (Measurement Point) number during a mass upload process in the Oil and Gas industry solution (SAP OIL). Specifically, the error states that the MP number must be blank when the MP is internally generated.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when you are trying to upload data for measurement points that are supposed to be generated automatically by the system. In such cases, the MP number should not be provided in the upload file. If the MP number is included in the upload data, the system will throw this error because it conflicts with the internal generation logic.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should ensure that the MP number field in your upload file is left blank for those measurement points that are intended to be generated by the system. Here are the steps to follow:
  
  Review the Upload File: Open the file you are using for the mass upload and locate the column for the MP number.
  Clear MP Number Field: For all rows where the MP is supposed to be internally generated, make sure that the MP number field is empty (i.e., it should not contain any values).
  Validate Other Fields: Ensure that all other required fields in the upload file are correctly populated and formatted according to SAP requirements.
  Re-upload the File: After making the necessary changes, attempt the mass upload process again.
