COM_CATEGORY047 - Details

• The SAP error message COM_CATEGORY047 indicates that there are products or individual objects associated with a specific category, which is identified by the placeholder &1. This error typically arises when you attempt to delete or modify a category that still has associated products or objects linked to it.

  Identify Associated Products/Objects:
