  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCPR702 - Generic data record '&1' of table &2 forbidden in classic BC Sets ?

    The SAP error message SCPR702 indicates that there is a problem with a generic data record in a Business Configuration Set (BC Set) that is not allowed in classic BC Sets. This error typically arises when you are trying to use a BC Set that contains generic data records, which are not supported in the classic BC Set framework.

    Cause:

    1. Generic Data Records: The error occurs because the BC Set you are trying to use contains generic data records (indicated by the &1 placeholder), which are not permitted in classic BC Sets. Classic BC Sets are designed to work with specific data records rather than generic ones.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the BC Set or the way it was created, leading to the inclusion of generic records.

    Solution:

    1. Review the BC Set: Check the contents of the BC Set to identify any generic data records. You can do this by using transaction code SCPR20 (BC Set Management) to analyze the BC Set.
    2. Remove Generic Records: If you find any generic records, you will need to remove them from the BC Set. This can be done by editing the BC Set and ensuring that only specific data records are included.
    3. Create a New BC Set: If necessary, consider creating a new BC Set that only includes the required specific data records, avoiding the inclusion of any generic records.
    4. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to BC Sets for further guidance on the correct structure and limitations of classic BC Sets.
