3305010 - Status for selected mapping procedure not allowed Error when customizing the payment format

Symptom

In Configuration activity "Map Format Data for Payments" (ID: 100558), Error "Node &1: Status for selected mapping procedure not allowed" raised when saving a customizing payment format.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. In configuration activity "Map Format Data for Payments" (ID: 100558) open custom format mapping and click on Edit button.
  2. Click on Check or Release.

Cause

Extended syntax check implemented from release CE2302 prevents customers from defining a format mapping with a configuration that could potentially lead to inconsistencies in the future.

The combination of node with mapping procedure "No mapping" and "optional" status does not make sense, because below such a node other nodes have to exist.  Hence, it will never be empty.

This is not a regression issue, as the runtime of the format mapping is unaffected. Payment files generated now are identical to those generated before the upgrade across all systems (D/Q/P). The inconsistency needs to be corrected only when format mapping customization is changed.

Resolution

In configuration activity "Map Format Data for Payments", for affected format mappings change the Status of nodes listed in the log from "Optional" to "Standard".
