• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: S_AUT - Audit Trail (ILM): Messages

• Message number: 120

• Message text: Inconsistency between filter table and transaction S_AUT04

What causes this issue?

You have made changes to the configuration for long text deletion and
wish to save these without synchronization of the filter table
(STXXFILTER).
There are inconsistencies between the settings for this transaction and
the filter table which may lead to data loss.

System Response

The data cannot be saved without synchronization of the filter table.

How to fix this error?

Either align the filter table or delete the content of the filter table
completely (menu: Goto -> Delete Filter Table).
Note that if the filter table is completely deleted, all long text
changes are logged. This puts an increased load on the database and
leads to a deterioration in performance.

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.
