How To Fix RSAR367 - ConvExits for assigned InfoObjects inconsistent: & (&) - &(&)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSAR - Data Transfer and Metadata Maintenance

• Message number: 367

• Message text: ConvExits for assigned InfoObjects inconsistent: & (&) - &(&)

What causes this issue?

The InfoObject in the communication structure has the conversion exit
&V1&. A transfer structure field was assigned to this InfoObject as a
transfer rule. However, conversion exit &V3& belongs to this field.
Problems and errors could occur later if the conversion exits differ.

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

System Response

How to fix this error?

To prevent problems in subsequent processing steps, select a field with
the appropriate conversion exit.
If you are loading from an SAP system you can ignore this message if the
transfer structure field has a conversion exit and the InfoObject
assigned in the transfer rules has no conversion exit.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR367 - ConvExits for assigned InfoObjects inconsistent: & (&) - &(&) ?

  The SAP error message RSAR367 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the conversion exits (ConvExits) for the assigned InfoObjects in your SAP system. This typically occurs in the context of data transfer processes, especially when dealing with data extraction and loading in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence).
  Cause:
  The error message RSAR367 is triggered when the conversion exits for the InfoObjects involved in the data transfer are not aligned or consistent. This can happen due to several reasons, including:
  
  Changes in InfoObjects: If the InfoObjects have been modified (e.g., data type changes, length changes) after the conversion exits were defined, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  Missing or Incorrect Conversion Exits: If the conversion exits for the InfoObjects are not defined correctly or are missing, this can cause the error.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoObjects and their associated conversion exits were transported between systems (e.g., from development to production) and not all related objects were included, inconsistencies may arise.
  Data Type Mismatches: If there are mismatches in the data types between the source and target InfoObjects, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSAR367 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check InfoObject Definitions: Review the definitions of the InfoObjects involved in the error. Ensure that the data types, lengths, and attributes are consistent and correctly defined.
  
  
  Review Conversion Exits: Verify that the conversion exits for the InfoObjects are correctly defined and active. You can do this by navigating to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and checking the conversion exit settings.
  
  
  Recreate Conversion Exits: If you find that the conversion exits are missing or incorrect, you may need to recreate or adjust them. This can be done in the InfoObject maintenance screen.
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all related objects (including conversion exits) were included in the transport request. If not, you may need to transport the missing objects.
  
  
  Test Data Transfer: After making the necessary adjustments, test the data transfer process again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue continues, refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to RSAR367 for additional troubleshooting steps or known issues.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to manage InfoObjects and their properties.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific fixes or recommendations related to RSAR367. You can search for the error message in the SAP Support Portal.
  Data Transfer Processes: Familiarize yourself with the data transfer processes in SAP BW/BI, as understanding how data flows can help in troubleshooting similar issues in the future.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the inconsistency causing the RSAR367 error in your SAP system.
