SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: COM_PRODUCT_API - Messages for Product Interfaces

• Message number: 053

• Message text: Input parameter &1 contains invalid value

What causes this issue?

The input parameter for identifying the product to be transferred to
the OLTP System is not filled adequately.

System Response

The product cannot be uploaded due to the incomplete data.

How to fix this error?

To upload a product, the parameter &V1& must contain either the product
GUID (field PRODUCT_GUID) or the product ID (field PRODUCT_ID) together
with the product type (field PRODUCT_TYPE).
If the product GUID or the product ID together with the product type
refers to a product that has not been created in CRM (i.e. the CRM
System is not defined as the logical system) this product cannot be
transferred to an OLTP System. This is because this product was
downloaded from an OLTP System to the CRM System and therefore no
longer needs to be transferred from the CRM System to the OLTP System.
