PYC_CONF_CONS_CHECK035 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PYC_CONF_CONS_CHECK - Consistency check for PCC configuration

• Message number: 035

• Message text: Process authority prefix &1 does not match process type auth. prefix &2

What causes this issue?

If a process has an authority prefix of less than, or equal to, 4
digits, the process must have the same authority prefix as the
corresponding process type. Otherwise, the process cannot be converted.
If the process has an authority prefix of more than 4 digits, then first
N (N=No. of digits of the authority prefix of the corresponding process
type) digits must be the same as the authority prefix of the process
type.
For example, a process has the authority prefix <LB>SAPLL</>. The
corresponding process type has an authority prefix of <LB>SAP</>. The
first three digits of the process authority prefix matches the authority
prefix of the process type. Therefore, the process can be converted.
