Error in Copying Reporting Elements
In certain cases, copying Reporting Elements leads to an error.
For example, the Return Code is higher than 0 or the Query-check in BEx (or BW Modeling Tools) shows a fault message.
A possible reason could be the different date-/time settings in the Source- and Target-Systems.
To exclude the format as a possible source of errors the "Check Date and Time Format" button should be used.
This verification is not necessary but a helpful assistance to eliminate defects.
However, it may happen that further errors occur as the System reads User-Tables (SU*) during the check, and not every Docu Performer-User has adequate permission to do so.
To adjust date and time settings if necessary please follow the steps below:
- Start Transaction su01
- Choose relevant User
- Choose Tab “Defaults“ (in German: “Festwerte“)
- Verify that “Date Format” and “Time Format (12/24h)” are matching for the relevant User in the Source- and Target-System
- If not, adjust these settings
