Message Text

Not enough alternative identifier fields in table VEKP

Help Document

Diagnosis

Alternative handling unit identifiers in R/3 are stored in a "flat format" in table VEKP.

Table VEKP therefore contains a number of fields into which the identifiers are mapped. However during this mapping not enough fields were available to store all identifiers.

System Response

The system terminated.

Procedure

Reduce the number of transferred identifiers or add additional fields for these identifiers.

To add additional identifier fields you need to create a so-called APPEND-structure for structure /SPE/VEKP_HUIDENT by doing the following:

• Start transaction SE11
• Display structure (data type) /SPE/VEKP_HUIDENT
• Choose the function Append structure and create a new APPEND with any name
• In your APPEND structure add additional fields with the names ZIDART_xx (with reference to data element /SPE/DE_HUIDART) and ZIDENT_xx (data element /SPE/DE_IDENT) whereby xx are numeric characters starting with 01.
  Note: The Z prefix identifies these fields as "customer added" fields which are not impacted by future SAP developments. Instead of Z you can also use Y.
