• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM_TEAM073 - Any change in resp. def. values will be inherited to all the sub teams ?

  The SAP error message RSM_TEAM073 indicates that any changes made to the responsible definition values in a team will be inherited by all sub-teams. This message is typically encountered in the context of SAP's Project System (PS) or similar modules where team structures and responsibilities are defined.
  Cause:
  The error message is a warning rather than a critical error. It is triggered when a user attempts to change the responsible definition values (like responsible persons, roles, or other attributes) for a team that has sub-teams. The system is informing the user that these changes will cascade down to all associated sub-teams, which may not be the intended action.
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Changes: Before proceeding with the changes, review the implications of modifying the responsible definition values. Ensure that the changes are appropriate for all sub-teams.
  
  
  Modify Sub-Teams Individually: If the changes should not apply to sub-teams, consider modifying the responsible definition values for each sub-team individually instead of changing the parent team.
  
  
  Documentation: Document the changes and communicate with team members to ensure everyone is aware of the modifications and their implications.
  
  
  Use of Team Hierarchy: If the team structure is complex, consider using a more granular approach to manage responsibilities, ensuring that changes at the parent level do not inadvertently affect sub-teams.
  
  
  Consult SAP Help: If you are unsure about the implications of the changes, consult the SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Team Structure: Understanding the hierarchy of teams and sub-teams in your organization is crucial for managing responsibilities effectively.
  SAP Project System (PS): Familiarize yourself with how teams and responsibilities are managed within the SAP Project System, as this will help in understanding the broader context of the error message.
  Change Management: Implementing a change management process can help mitigate risks associated with changes in team responsibilities.
  
  By carefully considering the implications of changes to responsible definition values and managing them appropriately, you can avoid unintended consequences in your SAP environment.
