FVD_PROD_ATTR217 - Details

• The SAP error message FVD_PROD_ATTR217 indicates that only the attributes of a product were included in a transport request, but not the actual product itself. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) or SAP Variant Configuration, where product attributes are defined separately from the product master data.
  
  Cause:
  
  Incomplete Transport Request: The transport request may have been created or modified in such a way that it only captures the attributes of the product but not the product itself.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with how the transport request is configured, leading to the exclusion of the main product data.
  User Error: The user may have inadvertently selected only the attributes when creating the transport request.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Transport Request: Review the transport request to ensure that it includes both the product and its attributes. You can do this by:
  
  Going to the transport organizer (transaction code SE09 or SE10).
