  • What causes this issue?

    You must enter a company name so that the system knows whether a BC Set
    was created locally or in an upstream system (for example, by SAP).

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Always use the same company name when working in your system. The
    company name must be different from the ones used in other systems by,
    for example, SAP, SAP partners, and superordinate or subordinate
    companies in the corporate group. This ensures that your BC Sets are
    not overwritten automatically when data is imported from upstream
    systems.
