1. A method for structured storage of error entries of the users of a data bus in a motor vehicle, the method comprising the acts of:

  • determining, upon occurrence of an error, a function possibly influenced by the error and users that are members of a function-specific group of diagnostic-relevant users;

    preparing, by a first user that is a first member of the function-specific group, an error entry; and

    upon receiving message of the error, storing, by a second user that is a second member of the function-specific group and by a third user that is a third member of the function-specific group, a diagnostic pointer referring to the first user that is the first member,wherein the users are one of sensors for the function and control units for controlling the function, andwherein the diagnostic pointer uses less memory space than the error entry.
