SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: ML - Purchasing: Supplier Evaluation

• Message number: 062

• Message text: Subcriterion & cannot be displayed in graphic form

What causes this issue?

Only one score is stored in the system for the subcriterion. For the
purposes of graphic representation, at least two scores must be
available in the system.
&EXAMPLES&
For the subcriterion "on-time delivery performance" for example,
graphic representation is possible because scores are updated for
several posting periods.
Period 1: 50 points
Period 2: 60 points
Period 3: 70 points
These three scores can be represented graphically. They correspond to
three points in a graphic from which a development over time can be
interpreted.
