How To Fix REMICL147 - Contract &1: not activated automatic extension

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: REMICL - Texts for Migration of Classic RE => RE-FX

• Message number: 147

• Message text: Contract &1: not activated automatic extension

What causes this issue?

For the real estate general contract &V1&, an automatic contract renewal
is defined that is not activated and for which the notification date is
already past.

System Response

Due to the fact that the contract renewal is not activated, this
contract has expired. Since in RE-FX no activity is required for an
automatic contract renewal, in contrast to a renewal option, this
contract is still active. Since this is contrary to the behavior in
Classic RE, the data for the renewal is not adopted and the contract is
ended with the current end date.

How to fix this error?

If you do not want the automatic behavior described here, you have to
take action before continuing with the migration. You have to either
manually give notice on this contract or activate the contract renewal.

Procedure for System Administrators

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