• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 2X102 - No object dependency assigned to characteristic value '&' ?

  The SAP error message 2X102 ("No object dependency assigned to characteristic value '&'") typically occurs in the context of variant configuration in SAP. This error indicates that a characteristic value does not have an associated object dependency, which is necessary for the system to understand how to handle that characteristic in the context of product configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Object Dependency: The characteristic value you are trying to use does not have an object dependency assigned to it. Object dependencies define the relationships and rules between characteristics and their values.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the material or product may not be set up correctly, leading to missing dependencies.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data or configuration settings that prevent the system from finding the necessary dependencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Object Dependencies:
  
  Go to the transaction code CU01 (Create Object Dependency) or CU02 (Change Object Dependency) in SAP.
  Verify if the characteristic value in question has an object dependency assigned. If not, you will need to create or assign the appropriate object dependency.
  
  
  
  Assign Object Dependency:
  
  If the characteristic value is missing an object dependency, create a new object dependency that includes the necessary logic for that characteristic value.
  Ensure that the object dependency is correctly linked to the relevant characteristics and values.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Profile:
  
  Check the configuration profile of the material to ensure that all necessary characteristics and their dependencies are correctly defined.
  Use transaction code CU50 (Configuration Profile) to review and adjust the configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Test Configuration:
  
  After making changes, test the configuration again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
