  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOS_MAPPING814 - GUID field & is not a key field of ABAP Dictionary object & ?

    The SAP error message SOS_MAPPING814 typically indicates that there is an issue with the mapping of a GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) field in the context of an ABAP Dictionary object. This error usually arises when the system expects a GUID field to be a key field in a particular context, but it is not defined as such in the ABAP Dictionary.

    Cause:

    1. Field Definition: The GUID field is not defined as a key field in the relevant database table or structure in the ABAP Dictionary (SE11).

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Definition:

      • Go to transaction SE11 and check the definition of the relevant database table or structure.
      • Ensure that the GUID field is defined as a key field if it is supposed to be one.
    2. Adjust Mappings:

      • If you are using a mapping tool (like SAP Data Services or SAP BW), check the mappings to ensure that the GUID field is correctly mapped as a key field where necessary.
    3. Update Data Model:

      • If there have been recent changes to the data model, ensure that all related objects and mappings are updated accordingly.
