  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V0201 - Texts are globally assigned to the Fcode &. Multiple use is allowed. ?

    The SAP error message V0201 indicates that there is an issue related to the assignment of texts to function codes (Fcodes) in the SAP system. This message typically arises in the context of SAP's Sales and Distribution (SD) module, particularly when dealing with text management for sales documents, such as sales orders, quotations, or contracts.

    Cause:

    The error message "V0201 Texts are globally assigned to the Fcode &. Multiple use is allowed." suggests that there is a conflict or misconfiguration regarding the text types assigned to a specific function code. This can occur due to:

    1. Duplicate Text Assignments: The same text type is assigned to multiple function codes, which can lead to confusion in processing.
    2. Configuration Issues: The configuration settings in the text determination procedure may not be set up correctly, leading to conflicts.
    3. Missing or Incorrect Text Types: The text types that are expected to be used in the document may not be properly defined or may be missing.

    Solution:

    To resolve the V0201 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Text Determination Configuration:

      • Go to the transaction code SPRO to access the SAP Reference IMG.
      • Navigate to Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Text Control > Text Determination.
      • Review the configuration for text types and ensure that they are correctly assigned to the relevant function codes.
    2. Review Text Types:

      • Ensure that the text types you are trying to use are correctly defined in the system.
      • Check if there are any duplicate entries for the same text type across different function codes.
    3. Adjust Text Assignment:

      • If you find that a text type is assigned to multiple function codes and it is not intended, you may need to adjust the assignments to ensure that each text type is uniquely assigned where necessary.
    4. Test Changes:

      • After making any changes, test the document creation process again to see if the error persists.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • If you are unsure about the configuration, refer to SAP documentation or consult with a functional consultant who specializes in SAP SD.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as VA01 (Create Sales Order), VA02 (Change Sales Order), and VA03 (Display Sales Order) to test the changes.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to text determination issues in the SAP Service Marketplace, as there may be specific patches or updates that address known issues.
    • User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is implemented, review any user exits or BAdIs that may affect text determination.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the cause of the V0201 error in your SAP system.
