    Error Message

    WTY104: No PVS (Product Variant Structure) ID record found


    Cause

    This error occurs when the system tries to access or process a Product Variant Structure (PVS) ID, but no corresponding record exists in the database. The PVS is a key element in variant configuration and product master data, representing the structure of a configurable product variant.

    Common causes include:

    • The PVS ID has not been created or maintained for the material or product variant.
    • The PVS record was deleted or corrupted.
    • The system is referencing an incorrect or outdated PVS ID.
    • Incomplete or inconsistent master data related to variant configuration.
    • Transport or system copy issues where PVS data was not properly moved.

    Solution

    To resolve the error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check PVS ID Maintenance:

      • Verify if the PVS ID exists for the material in question.
      • Use transaction CU50 (Maintain Product Variant Structure) or CU51 (Display Product Variant Structure) to check the PVS.
      • If missing, create or maintain the PVS for the product variant.
    2. Verify Material Master and Configuration Data:

      • Ensure that the material master is correctly maintained with the variant configuration relevant views.
      • Check if the material is assigned to the correct PVS.
    3. Recreate or Repair PVS:

      • If the PVS record is corrupted or missing, recreate it.
      • Use transaction CU41 (Create Product Variant Structure) if applicable.
    4. Check for Transport or System Copy Issues:

      • If the error appeared after a system copy or transport, verify that the PVS data was included.
      • Re-import or re-create the PVS data if necessary.
    5. Check Customizing and Integration:

      • Ensure that the variant configuration customizing is consistent.
      • Check integration points where the PVS ID is referenced (e.g., sales order, BOM, routing).
    6. Debugging and Logs:

      • If the above steps do not resolve the issue, use debugging or check application logs to identify where the PVS ID is being called and why it is missing.
