FSBP_TC043 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FSBP_TC -

• Message number: 043

• Message text: Make settings for prod. cat. &1 prod. type &2 for appl. &3 in Customizing

What causes this issue?

You have set the <DS:DE.BP_TC_DTE_GROUP_STATUS> grouping status of total
commitment</> to <LS>Active (can only be set manually)</> in Customizing
for total commitment in the IMG activity <LS>Make Settings for Total
Commitment</> in the step <LS>Make Settings for TC Grouping Status</>.
This determines that when you display total commitment, the system
groups contract information according to <DS:DE.BP_TC_DTE_GROUP_KEY>
total commitment groupings</> and not according to
<DS:DE.BP_TC_DTE_APPL> applications</>, as it does in the standard
version.
You have also determined that when you display the contract information,
the system does not automatically save any unknown combinations of
<DS:DE.BP_TC_DTE_CAT_KEY> product categories</> and
<DS:DE.BP_TC_DTE_TYPE_KEY> types</> for an application. You do this in
the IMG activity <LS>Make Settings for Total Commitment Grouping</> (in
the steps <LS>Assign Product Category</> and <LS>Assign TC Grouping to
Product Type</>).

System Response

How to fix this error?

Create the new combination of product categories and product types in
the IMG activity <LS>Make Settings for Total Commitment Grouping</> in
the steps <LS>Assign Product Category</> and <LS>Assign TC Grouping to
Product Type</>, and assign these to a total commitment grouping in the
step <LS>Assign TC Grouping to Product Type</>.
Until you have made this assignment, total commitment uses the
application to group the corresponding contract information.
