SDX215 - Details

• The SAP error message SDX215 indicates that there is a missing mandatory segment in a file being processed, typically in the context of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) or similar data exchange processes. This error usually arises when the system expects certain segments of data to be present in the incoming or outgoing file, but they are not found.
  
  Cause:
  
  Missing Data: The most common cause is that the data file being processed does not contain all the required segments as defined by the EDI standard or the specific configuration in SAP.
  Incorrect Mapping: If the mapping between the source data and the SAP structure is incorrect, it may lead to missing segments.
  File Format Issues: The file may not be formatted correctly, leading to parsing errors that result in missing segments.
  Configuration Errors: There may be issues in the configuration of the EDI settings in SAP, such as incorrect segment definitions or requirements.
