SF341
- The original of this structure is in another system (&). ?The SAP error message SF341, which states "The original of this structure is in another system (&)," typically occurs in the context of SAP's cross-system data handling, particularly when dealing with structures or data that are expected to be consistent across different SAP systems (like in a landscape with multiple systems such as Development, Quality Assurance, and Production).
Cause:
- Cross-System Data Reference: The error indicates that the data structure you are trying to access or modify is originally defined in a different SAP system. This can happen in scenarios involving transport requests, where objects are moved between systems.
- Inconsistent Data: The structure may have been modified in one system but not in another, leading to inconsistencies.
- Transport Issues: If a transport request that includes the structure has not been properly imported into the target system, this error can occur.
Solution:
- Check Transport Requests: Ensure that the transport requests containing the relevant structure have been successfully imported into the target system. If not, you may need to transport the changes.
- Consistency Check: Verify that the structure is consistent across the systems. You can do this by checking the data dictionary (SE11) in both systems to see if the structure exists and is identical.
- Recreate the Structure: If the structure is not available in the target system and cannot be transported, you may need to manually recreate it in the target system.
- Consult Basis Team: If you are unsure about the transport process or if there are issues with the transport management system, consult your SAP Basis team for assistance.
- Check for Dependencies: Sometimes, the structure may have dependencies on other objects. Ensure that all related objects are also transported and available in the target system.
