• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /MVA/AMVIDEMSG072 - External and internal DBY for VehL BM different; check ?

  The SAP error message /MVA/AMVIDEMSG072 indicates a discrepancy between the external and internal database entries for a vehicle in the Vehicle Management System (VMS). This error typically arises in the context of vehicle master data management, where the system expects the external and internal database entries to match but finds them to be different.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Inconsistency: The most common cause of this error is a mismatch between the external database (which may be a third-party system or an external data source) and the internal SAP database. This can happen due to:
  
  Manual data entry errors.
  Data synchronization issues between systems.
  Changes made in one system that have not been reflected in the other.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the VMS or related modules can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system into SAP, inconsistencies may arise if the migration process was not handled correctly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Data Verification: 
  
  Check the vehicle master data in both the external and internal databases to identify the discrepancies.
  Ensure that the relevant fields (like Vehicle ID, VIN, etc.) match in both databases.
  
  
  
  Data Synchronization: 
  
  If discrepancies are found, update the incorrect entries in either the external or internal database to ensure consistency.
  Implement a data synchronization process if the external database is regularly updated.
  
  
  
  Configuration Review: 
  
  Review the configuration settings in the VMS to ensure they are set up correctly.
  Consult with your SAP Basis or VMS consultant to verify that the system is configured to handle external and internal data correctly.
  
  
  
  Error Logs: 
  
  Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing: 
  
  After making corrections, perform tests to ensure that the error does not reoccur and that the data is consistent across systems.
