How To Fix CPOC2103 - Command &1.&2 cannot be assigned to a process step

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CPOC2 - PP-PI-PMA: PI Sheet Messages, SCM Add-On

• Message number: 103

• Message text: Command &1.&2 cannot be assigned to a process step

What causes this issue?

In the process instruction, a condition is defined that is used to
automatically execute an action (for example, <LS>Deactivate process
instruction</>) in the <DS:GLOS.3526C51EAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>PI
sheet</> or <DS:GLOS.389B9DAA500F0E7CE10000009B38F931>manufacturing
cockpit</>.
An action was assigned to characteristic PPPI_COMMAND that refers to a
<DS:GLOS.50BEB46A3AABFC42856FF26F393DA411>process step</> (for example,
<LS>Lock process step</>). However, you must not assign this value.
This may be due to the following reasons:
No process step was defined in the PI sheet, this means there is no
segment in the PI sheet between two signatures.
Two signatures are defined in the PI sheet but the last signature is
<DS:GLOS.8984926F20E33247B18EDCB0E6B99E38>asynchronous</>, which means
that it automatically completes the PI sheet. This segment is not
considered as a process step.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
