create a product

[Former Member]

Hi! I want to create a product for a category created in SRM, the name of the hierarchy is CON_SAP. I create a category for this hierarchy with the name DESARROLLO, and two subcategories ABAP and NETWEAVER. When I go to create the product (material) for the subcategory NETWEAVER, I have three errors:

1) No basis hierarchy for product type 01

2) Parameters required to call function module COM_PRCAT_READ are missing

3) Set type 380BDF7B502D63F7E10000009B38FA0B does not exist

What can I do??

Thanks

Hi,

Have you downloaded the Product categories and Product type objects form backend successfully under which you will be creating your local products?

Also have you assigned the Hierarchies to Applications?

Hi Chris

Do you manage to get any reply for issue no 3 ?

Hi Rose,

when replicating categories from R/3, the system creates 2 hierarchies:

- R3MATCLASS assigned to purchasing application

- R3PRODTYP assigned to product application

When creating R3PRODTYP, predefined set types (description, UOM, purchasing...) are assigned to this hierarchy.

Also, a sub node MAT_ is defined as MATERIAL and a sub node SERV_ is defined as SERVICE.

If you don't replicate categories from R/3 but create them locally, you must do the same as the sdt:

- assign a hierarchy to purchasing & product applications (can be the same one)

- in the hierarchy assigned to the product application, you must have a sub node defined with family type MATERIAL to be able to create some MATERIAL products (same for services)

- in the hierarchy assigned to the product application, you must assigned predifined set types (descriptions and so on)

This will resolve first 2 points.

For the point 3, I have an open OSS message for SRM 5.0 and will let you know.

Hi Rose,

so your 2 first points are solved ?

For the point 3, this is because of a needed CRM set type, Sales org Header, that should not be used anymore in a basis system.

I solved this issue by deassigning some set types. If you assign too many set types (some are old CRM ones), there are some additional controls linked.

I compared with a system where I replicated product category, and could see that only those set types were assigned in standard:

COMM_PR_UNIT Units of Measure 1 20 MATERIAL Material

COMM_PR_GTIN Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) 1 30 MATERIAL Material

COMM_PR_LGTEXT1 Basic Texts 1 40 MATERIAL Material

COMM_PR_SHTEXT Descriptions 1 30 BASIC General

CRMM_PR_TAX Product Taxes 1 50 BASIC General

COMM_PR_PUR_1 Purchasing 0 10 PURCHASING Purchasing

So, unassign useless set types, and it will work (try to create a new product).
