SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UCM0 - Messages for Data Basis, Cons Area, ...

• Message number: 241

• Message text: Fields for deviating shares inconsistent in "Investments" data stream

What causes this issue?

If you have activated the business function <LS>Financial Accounting,
Group Close, Check Digits</>, the <LS>Deviating Shares</> function is
available to you. To use this function, you also need to activate other
InfoObjects from BW Content:
0BCS_PCTIN2 ("Share Change, with Voting Rights")
0BCS_PCTIN3 ("Share Change, with No Voting Rights")
0BCS_PCTIN4 ("Share Change, Net Income")
0BCS_PCTIN5 ("Share Change, Other Comprehensive Income")
Once the InfoObjects have been activated, the fields for the percentages
of the deviating shares appear in the data basis on the <LS>Data Stream
Fields</> in the data stream for investments as additional fields.
The selection of fields for the deviating shares is generally optional.
If you want to use the <LS>Deviating Shares</> function, however, you
need to select <ZH>all</> four percentage fields. In data basis &V1&,
you have only selected some of these fields.

System Response

The Customizing settings for data basis &V1& are inconsistent and cannot
be saved.

How to fix this error?

In data basis &V1&, define either none or all of the four percentage
fields for deviating shares as additional fields in the data stream for
investments.
You only require the percentage fields for deviating shares in the data
stream for investments if you want to use the <LS>Deviating Shares</>
function.
The <LS>Investments from Additional Financial Data</> setting in the
<LS>data origin</> of the consolidation of investments is a prerequisite
for processing deviating shares through automatic consolidation of
investments.
