  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSSDA115 - Target field &1 is not part of Type Converter ?

    The SAP error message RSSDA115, which states "Target field &1 is not part of Type Converter," typically occurs in the context of data transfer processes, particularly when using the Data Transfer Workbench (DTW) or during data migration activities. This error indicates that the target field specified in the data transfer is not recognized as part of the type converter configuration.

    Cause:

    1. Field Mismatch: The target field specified in the data transfer does not exist in the type converter definition. This could be due to a typo or an incorrect field mapping.
    2. Type Converter Configuration: The type converter may not be properly configured to include the target field. This can happen if the type converter was not updated after changes were made to the data model.
    3. Data Structure Changes: If there have been changes to the underlying data structure (e.g., fields added or removed), the type converter may not reflect these changes.
    4. Incorrect Data Source: The data source being used may not match the expected structure for the type converter.

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Mapping: Verify that the target field specified in the data transfer is correctly spelled and exists in the type converter configuration.
    2. Update Type Converter: If the target field is missing from the type converter, you may need to update the type converter to include the field. This can be done in the SAP system where the type converter is defined.
    3. Review Data Structure: Ensure that the data structure in the source and target systems is aligned. If there have been changes, update the type converter accordingly.
    4. Test with Sample Data: Run a test with a small set of data to ensure that the mapping works correctly after making changes.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on configuring type converters and data transfer processes.

    Related Information:

    • Type Converter: A type converter in SAP is used to map fields from a source structure to a target structure during data transfer. It defines how data is transformed and ensures that the correct fields are used.
