The SAP error message CNV301 typically indicates that there is an issue with a data conversion or migration process, specifically related to a field in a table that is expected to exist but does not. This error is often encountered during data migration projects, especially when using tools like SAP's Data Migration Workbench or during system upgrades.
Cause:
Field Does Not Exist: The most straightforward cause is that the field specified in the error message does not exist in the target table. This could be due to:
- Changes in the data model (e.g., fields being removed or renamed).
- Incorrect mapping in the migration configuration.
- The source system having a different structure than the target system.
Incorrect Configuration: The migration or conversion configuration may be incorrectly set up, leading to references to non-existent fields.
Version Mismatch: If the source and target systems are on different versions of SAP, there may be discrepancies in the data model.
Solution:
Check Field Existence: Verify that the field mentioned in the error message actually exists in the target table. You can do this by checking the Data Dictionary (SE11) in the SAP system.
Review Migration Mapping: Go through the migration mapping configuration to ensure that all fields are correctly mapped and that there are no references to fields that do not exist in the target structure.
Update Data Model: If the field is supposed to exist but does not, you may need to update the data model in the target system to include the missing field. This could involve adding a new field or adjusting the existing structure.
Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the migration tool you are using to ensure that you are following the correct procedures and that your configurations align with the expected data model.
Check for Version Compatibility: If you suspect a version mismatch, consult SAP notes or documentation to understand the differences in data models between the versions you are working with.
Testing: After making changes, perform a test migration to ensure that the error is resolved and that data is being migrated correctly.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
