• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_WSP2548 - Source and target value are the same for KVM '&1' ?

  The SAP error message SRT_WSP2548 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a Key Value Mapping (KVM) in the SAP system. Specifically, the error states that the source and target values for a KVM entry are the same, which is not allowed. This can occur in scenarios where data transformation or mapping is required, such as in SAP Process Integration (PI) or SAP Process Orchestration (PO).
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that a mapping entry in the KVM has been defined where the source value and the target value are identical. This situation is typically not meaningful in the context of data transformation, as it does not provide any actual mapping or transformation of data.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to check the KVM configuration and make the following adjustments:
  
  
  Access the KVM Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP system where the KVM is defined. This is usually done through the Integration Directory or the relevant configuration area in SAP PI/PO.
  
  
  
  Identify the Problematic Entry:
  
  Look for the KVM entry that is causing the error. The error message will provide the KVM name (indicated by &1 in the message). 
  
  
  
  Modify the Entry:
  
  Once you locate the entry, check the source and target values. If they are the same, you need to either:
  
  Change the target value to a different value that makes sense for your mapping.
  Remove the entry if it is not needed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save the configuration.
  
  
  
  Test the Mapping:
  
  After correcting the KVM entry, test the mapping to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the data transformation works as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  KVM (Key Value Mapping): KVM is used in SAP PI/PO to map values from one format to another, allowing for data transformation during message processing.
  Error Handling: Always ensure that your mappings are logically sound and that there are no redundant entries that could lead to confusion or errors.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on configuring KVMs and handling errors in SAP PI/PO.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SRT_WSP2548 error and ensure that your KVM configuration is correct.
