What causes this issue?

The status check "Exception List" checks for the current version of the
"SPUMG Exception List". Here no version was found which can lead to
wrong conversion results and additional manual effort after Unicode
conversion.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Depending on the conversion scenario you use you should check that a
current version of the SPUMG Exception List is available in the system.
<ZH>Standalone conversion in one release</>
The SPUMG Exception List is updated during startup of SPUMG (upload of
appropriate XML file). This is a mandatory step which cannot be skipped
in general. If possible restart SPUMG from scratch (menu Scanner ->
Restart SPUMG) and upload the Exception List on the welcome screen of
SPUMG.
<ZH>Combined Upgrade and Unicode Conversion (CU&<(>&<)>UC)</>
The SPUMG Exception List updated during the step "Update Worklist" in
report UM4_FINISH_PREPARATION (basis start release 4.6C) or
UMG_FINISH_PREPARATION (basis start release >= 6.20). If you call SPUMG
before that step it happens that the Exception List is not available. If
you call SPUMG after the step is finished you can use the following work
around to fill the Exception List:
Download the most recent version of the Exception List (XML file) from
note 996990.
Upload the XML file from your local PC using report
UMG_UPDATE_EXCEPTIONS.
This needs to be done before the execution of the step "Update Worklist"
in UM4_FINISH_PREPARATION or UMG_FINISH_PREPARATION.
