• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC2453 - No EHS document type is maintained for DMS document type &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC2453 No EHS document type is maintained for DMS document type &1 typically occurs in the context of SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) when there is an attempt to link or manage a Document Management System (DMS) document that does not have a corresponding EHS document type defined in the system.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of a mapping between the DMS document type and the EHS document type in the SAP system. This means that when the system tries to process a DMS document of a specific type (indicated by &1), it cannot find a corresponding EHS document type that it can associate with it.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to maintain the mapping between the DMS document type and the EHS document type. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Access the Customizing Settings:

  Maintain Document Type Mapping:
  
  In the section for defining document types, check if the DMS document type that is causing the error is listed.
  If it is not listed, you will need to create a new entry that links the DMS document type to an appropriate EHS document type.
  Ensure that you specify the correct DMS document type and the corresponding EHS document type.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save your configuration.
