How To Fix MDGBP017 - No standard assignment defined for BP role category &1

MDGBP017 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: MDGBP - Master Data Governance: Business Partner specific messages

• Message number: 017

• Message text: No standard assignment defined for BP role category &1

What causes this issue?

The role category &V1& is assigned to at least one role. However, if
this role category is not assigned, the indicator Standard Assignment BP
Role -> BP Role Category is set.
Since a role category can be assigned to several roles, it is necessary
that only one assignment is given this standard indicator. The standard
assignment of a role category to a role ensures, for example in the case
of the check for the existence of a business partner role, that the
relevant role can be determined when the BAPI or API is used to read
data with the help of the role category.

System Response

The system issues an error message.

How to fix this error?

Set the standard indicator for a role to which the role category &V1& is
assigned.
