  • What causes this issue?

    The production version is required to determine the cost collector in
    the ERP system. Either the production version has to be explicitly
    transferred in the BAPI interface or it is determined via the iPPE
    access node.
    No production version could be determine using the transferred data
    (iPPE header: &V1&).

    System Response

    The system rejects the backflush.

    How to fix this error?

    Contact your system administrator.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    Fill in the VERSION field in the structure BAPI_PPC_APOHEADS if you know
    the version.
    Fill in the IPPE_HEADER field if you want the ERP system to determine
    the production version. To do so, the system reads Table MKAL. Check
    whether an entry exists for the transferred GUID.

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
