• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDG_IDM_TOOLS033 - Obj. ID structure &2 defined for OITC &1 must have at least one field ?

  The SAP error message MDG_IDM_TOOLS033 indicates that there is an issue with the Object ID structure defined for an Object Type Configuration (OITC) in the Master Data Governance (MDG) system. Specifically, it states that the Object ID structure must have at least one field defined, but currently, it does not.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  The Object ID structure (defined in the MDG configuration) for a specific Object Type (OITC) is either empty or incorrectly configured.
  There are no fields assigned to the Object ID structure, which is required for the system to uniquely identify instances of the object type.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Access the MDG Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Easy Access screen and navigate to the MDG configuration area. This is usually found under the path: Master Data Governance -> Configuration -> Data Model -> Object Type Configuration.
  
  
  
  Check the Object Type Configuration:
  
  Locate the specific Object Type Configuration (OITC) that is causing the error. You can do this by searching for the OITC using the relevant transaction code (e.g., MDGIMG).
  
  
  
  Review the Object ID Structure:
  
  Once you have found the OITC, check the Object ID structure associated with it. Ensure that it is correctly defined and that at least one field is included in the structure.
  If the structure is empty, you will need to add fields that are relevant to the object type.
  
  
  
  Add Fields to the Structure:
  
  If no fields are defined, you can add fields by selecting the appropriate fields from the available data elements or attributes that are relevant to the object type.
  Ensure that the fields you add are meaningful and necessary for the identification of the object instances.
  
  
  
  Save and Activate Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save your configuration and activate it if required. This will ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the changes, test the configuration by trying to create or modify an instance of the object type to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MDGIMG for configuration and MDG_MAINTAIN for maintaining master data.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Master Data Governance for detailed guidance on configuring Object Types and Object ID structures.
