SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UMV - Value Driver Tree

• Message number: 044

• Message text: &1 formula(s) have a more recent time stamp than the tree structure

What causes this issue?

&V1& formula(s) from SEM Business Planning and Simulation (SEM-BPS)
used in the value driver tree has/have a more recent time stamp than
the structure of the value driver tree. It is possible that the tree
structure no longer mirrors the planned mathematical dependencies.

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?

Rebuild the tree structure. Select the root node of the value driver
tree and choose <LS> Add measures automatically </>.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMV044 - &1 formula(s) have a more recent time stamp than the tree structure ?

  The SAP error message UMV044 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the timestamps of the formulas and the tree structure in the context of the SAP system, particularly in the area of variant configuration or similar applications. This error typically arises when the formulas used in a configuration are more recent than the tree structure that references them, suggesting that the tree structure may not be updated to reflect the latest changes made to the formulas.
  Cause:
  
  Outdated Tree Structure: The tree structure has not been updated after changes were made to the formulas, leading to a mismatch in timestamps.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the tree structure may not have been included in the transport.
  Manual Changes: Manual changes to formulas without corresponding updates to the tree structure can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Update the Tree Structure: 
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., CU50 for configuration) and regenerate or update the tree structure to ensure it reflects the latest formulas.
  You can also use transaction code CU01 to regenerate the configuration tree.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: 
  
  Ensure that all relevant transport requests that include both the formulas and the tree structure have been successfully imported into the target system.
  
  
  
  Consistency Check: 
  
  Use transaction CU60 to perform a consistency check on the configuration objects. This can help identify any inconsistencies between the formulas and the tree structure.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Formula: 
  
  If the issue persists, consider recreating the formula or the tree structure to ensure they are in sync.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SAP you are using, as there may be specific patches or updates that address this issue.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. You can search for UMV044 in the SAP Support Portal.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CU50 (Configuration) and CU01 (Create Configuration Profile).
  Support: If the issue cannot be resolved internally, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the UMV044 error and ensure that your formulas and tree structures are properly synchronized.
