• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_070018 - Source structure & and its parent structure have no fields with same name ?

  The SAP error message /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_070018 indicates that there is a mismatch between the source structure and its parent structure in the context of the Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW). Specifically, it means that the source structure and its parent structure do not have any fields with the same name, which is necessary for the mapping process to work correctly.
  Cause:
  
  Field Name Mismatch: The fields in the source structure do not match the field names in the parent structure. This can happen if the source data is not aligned with the expected structure in SAP.
  Incorrect Mapping: The mapping configuration may not be set up correctly, leading to a situation where the system cannot find corresponding fields.
  Data Source Issues: The data source being used may not have the correct structure or may be missing fields that are expected in the parent structure.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Field Names: Review the field names in both the source structure and the parent structure. Ensure that they match exactly, including case sensitivity.
  Adjust Mapping: If the mapping is incorrect, adjust it to ensure that the fields in the source structure are correctly mapped to the corresponding fields in the parent structure.
  Modify Source Data: If the source data does not contain the required fields, you may need to modify the source data to include the necessary fields or adjust the structure to match the expected format.
  Use the Correct Structure: Ensure that you are using the correct source structure that corresponds to the parent structure you are trying to map to.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for LSMW to understand the expected structures and mappings.
