How To Fix S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY202 - Field &2 of table/view &1 is not maintained in this table/view

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY - IMG Activity

• Message number: 202

• Message text: Field &2 of table/view &1 is not maintained in this table/view

What causes this issue?

You cannot maintain field '&V2&' in table/view &V1& in this table/view.
<ZH>Background:</>
The origin table of field '&V2&' in table/view &V1& does not have a
suitable foreign key relationship to the primary table in table/view
&V1&, which allows you to make changes to the field. Consequentially, in
the object definition of table/view &V1& (see the table/view bill of
material in transaction SOBJ), either the origin table does not exist or
you have not set the DDIC flag for this table. You can only maintain a
field of this kind directly by using the origin table or by using a view
based on it with a suitable foreign key relationship to the origin
table. You cannot use table/view &V1& to maintain the field.

System Response

Since maintenance of field '&V2&' is not possible by using table/view
&V1&, you cannot use it in this table/view in the BC set, that is, the
BC set maintenance transaction prohibits inclusion of this kind of
field. You cannot select these fields in the field selection.
For the above reasons, you cannot import the fields by using BC set
activation.

How to fix this error?

If you require the fields, then use a table/view in which the field can
be maintained in the BC set in addition to table/view &V1&.

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.
