• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CX010 - No characteristics defined for class "&1/&2" ?

  The SAP error message CX010 "No characteristics defined for class '&1/&2'" typically occurs when you are trying to use a classification system in SAP, but the system cannot find any characteristics defined for the specified class. This can happen in various contexts, such as when working with material master data, classification, or when trying to assign characteristics to a class.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Characteristics: The class you are trying to use does not have any characteristics defined. This could be due to the class not being set up correctly or characteristics not being assigned to it.
  Incorrect Class Type: The class type you are using may not be appropriate for the characteristics you are trying to assign.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing you from viewing or accessing the characteristics.
  Data Inconsistency: There could be inconsistencies in the classification data, possibly due to incomplete configuration or data migration issues.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Class Definition:
  
  Go to the transaction code CL02 (Change Class) or CL03 (Display Class).
