• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPS_PRO024 - No superordinate object found ?

  The SAP error message RMPS_PRO024 ("No superordinate object found") typically occurs in the context of Project System (PS) or related modules when the system is unable to find a higher-level object (such as a project or a WBS element) that is expected to be associated with a subordinate object (like a network or activity).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Hierarchical Structure: The most common cause is that the hierarchical structure of the project is incomplete. For example, a WBS element may not be assigned to a project, or a network may not be linked to a WBS element.
  Incorrect Object Assignment: The subordinate object may have been created without a proper reference to its superordinate object.
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the database or issues with the data integrity that prevent the system from recognizing the relationship between objects.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the superordinate object.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Assignments: Verify that the subordinate object (e.g., network or activity) is correctly assigned to a superordinate object (e.g., WBS element or project). You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (like CJ20N for project management) and checking the structure.
  Create or Link Objects: If the superordinate object is missing, you may need to create it or link the subordinate object to an existing superordinate object.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize transaction codes like CJ20N (Project Builder) or CN21 (Create Network) to review and adjust the project structure.
  Check for Data Integrity: Run consistency checks or reports to identify any data integrity issues within the project structure.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the superordinate object. This can be checked in the user roles and profiles.
