  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 6P567 - No object characteristic exists ?

    The SAP error message 6P567: No object characteristic exists typically occurs in the context of SAP's Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or when dealing with characteristics in the context of classification. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a characteristic that is expected for a specific object, such as a material or a class.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Characteristic: The characteristic that is being referenced does not exist in the system or has not been defined for the specific class or object.
    2. Incorrect Class Assignment: The object may not be assigned to the correct class that contains the required characteristic.
    3. Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing entries in the classification system.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the characteristics.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Characteristic Definition:

      • Go to the classification system and verify if the characteristic exists. You can do this by navigating to the transaction code CL02 (Change Characteristic) or CL03 (Display Characteristic).
      • If the characteristic does not exist, you may need to create it using CL01 (Create Characteristic).
