    SAP Error Message:

    WGDS_CC_2012073 No GLN of info provider for catalog &1, top-level GTIN &2, base GTIN &3


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs in the context of SAP Global Data Synchronization (GDS) or SAP Catalog Content Management (CCM) when the system tries to process or synchronize product data but cannot find the GLN (Global Location Number) of the information provider associated with the specified catalog and GTINs.

    • GLN (Global Location Number) is a unique identifier for a company or location in the GS1 system.
    • The system expects that for each catalog and product (identified by GTINs), there is an associated info provider identified by a GLN.
    • If the GLN is missing or not maintained for the info provider, the system cannot proceed with the synchronization or catalog processing, hence the error.

    When does it occur?

    • During product data synchronization or publishing in SAP GDS or SAP Catalog Content Management.
    • When the system tries to identify the info provider for a given catalog and product GTINs but fails to find the GLN.
    • Possibly during data exchange with external partners or GS1 network.

    Solution:

    1. Check Info Provider Master Data:

      • Verify that the info provider (the company or location responsible for the catalog) has a valid GLN maintained in the system.
      • In SAP, this is usually maintained in the master data for the info provider or business partner.
    2. Maintain GLN for Info Provider:

      • Go to the relevant transaction or app where info provider data is maintained.
      • Enter or update the GLN for the info provider.
      • Ensure the GLN is correct and corresponds to the GS1-registered number.
    3. Verify Catalog and GTIN Assignments:

      • Confirm that the catalog &1 and the GTINs (&2 and &3) are correctly assigned to the info provider.
      • Check if the catalog is linked to the correct info provider with a valid GLN.
    4. Re-run the Process:

      • After maintaining the GLN, retry the synchronization or publishing process.
    5. Check Integration Settings:

      • If the error persists, check the integration settings between SAP and GS1 or external systems.
      • Ensure that the mapping of info providers and GLNs is correctly configured.

    Additional Information:

    • GLN is critical in GS1 standards for identifying parties involved in data exchange.
    • Missing or incorrect GLN can cause failures in product data synchronization, leading to incomplete or failed catalog updates.
    • This error is specific to SAP solutions that handle GS1 data synchronization, such as SAP Global Data Synchronization or SAP Catalog Content Management.
    • If you are unsure about the GLN, contact your GS1 organization or check your company’s GS1 registration.
