  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VH539 - Table KONV is obsolete. Use table PRCD_ELEMENTS instead. ?

    SAP Error Message:
    VH539 - Table KONV is obsolete. Use table PRCD_ELEMENTS instead.


    Cause:

    The error message VH539 occurs because the SAP system or a custom program is trying to access the table KONV, which has been marked as obsolete in newer SAP releases. SAP has replaced the KONV table with PRCD_ELEMENTS for pricing condition records.

    • KONV was traditionally used to store condition records for pricing.
    • In newer SAP versions (especially from SAP S/4HANA onwards), PRCD_ELEMENTS is the new table that stores pricing condition data.
    • Accessing KONV directly is no longer supported and leads to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Use PRCD_ELEMENTS instead of KONV:

      • Modify your custom code, reports, or enhancements to read from PRCD_ELEMENTS instead of KONV.
      • PRCD_ELEMENTS contains the same pricing condition data but in a more optimized and structured way.
    2. Check SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • SAP has provided notes and guides for migrating from KONV to PRCD_ELEMENTS.
      • For example, SAP Note 2399700 explains the changes in pricing data model and how to adapt your code.
    3. Adjust Custom Code:

      • If you have custom ABAP programs, replace all SELECT statements and data declarations related to KONV with PRCD_ELEMENTS.
      • PRCD_ELEMENTS has a different structure, so you may need to adjust field names and logic accordingly.
    4. Use SAP Standard APIs:

      • Instead of directly accessing tables, use SAP standard function modules or CDS views for pricing data.
      • This approach ensures compatibility with future SAP releases.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Table KONV: Obsolete in SAP S/4HANA and newer releases.
    • SAP Table PRCD_ELEMENTS: New table for pricing condition records.
    • SAP S/4HANA Migration: Part of the data model simplification and optimization.

      • 2523787 - KONV table is obsolete in S/4HANA
