The SAP error message
/ISDFPS/FDP869
indicates that there is an issue with the relationships defined in the system, specifically that at least one of the relationships must have a valid relationship target. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP's Data Framework or when working with master data relationships in modules like SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) or SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM).Cause:
- Invalid Relationship Definition: The relationship defined in the system does not point to a valid target object. This could be due to a missing or incorrectly defined target in the relationship.
- Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data where the target object has been deleted or is not active.
- Configuration Issues: The configuration settings for the relationship types may not be set up correctly, leading to invalid relationships.
Solution:
Check Relationship Definitions:
- Go to the relevant transaction (e.g.,
BP
for Business Partner,MM01
for Material Master) and check the relationships defined for the object in question.- Ensure that all relationships have valid targets and that the target objects exist in the system.
Validate Data:
- Use transaction codes like
SE16
orSE11
to check the underlying tables for the relationship data. Look for any inconsistencies or missing entries.- If you find any invalid relationships, correct them by either updating the target or removing the invalid relationship.
Review Configuration:
- If you have access to the configuration settings, review the settings for the relationship types in the relevant customizing transactions (e.g.,
SPRO
).- Ensure that the relationship types are correctly defined and that they point to valid target types.
Data Migration or Upload Issues:
- If this error occurred after a data migration or upload, check the data files for any errors or missing information related to relationships.
- Re-upload or correct the data as necessary.

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.
