Project create Error message: PSB_MD_BO_MSGCL004

[former_member451545]

I want to create a project  ( WBS structure only , not network ) when I save
sales document. We are not using networks in our project. We have only WBS
structyre.

For
this Problem we are useing the transaction CN08CI.

But
if we want to create a Project from a sales order we get the follow error
message:

Conflict in ID determination; creation or change of project
failed

Message
No. PSB_MD_BO_MSGCL004

Our
Editing mask is:

A.XXXXXX.XXX.XXX.XX.XX

And
the standardproject Looks like this:

Level
1 A.000001

Level
2  A.000001.001

Level
3   A.000001.001.001

Level
4    A.000001.001.001.01

Level
5     A.000001.001.001.01.01

I
couldn't find any information.

Please verify that you are using Commercial Project Inception.  CPI is part of Professional Services.

With CPI, when the Project Definition and WBS are automatically created they use the Sales Document number in the Proj Definition and WBS numbers.  You have to have enough room in your coding mask to handle the Sales Document number.  Looks like your mask to too short.

Hello,

our SD numbers are going from

0000000001 - 0004999999

So are the zero also important than I think the mask is to short.

But if I read this link of SAP, a projectnumber can be shorter than the sales number:

Determining the Project Number from the Sales Document - Structures - SAP Library

[kenmelching]

That help is from Assembly Processing, aren't you using CPI?

I don't think you need to account for the leading 0's.  But you are still short, you have 6 places in the mask and the SD doc number is 7 digits long.

Hello,

yes we have CPI activated.

We have one project structure which is working with the same mask.

1 A.000002.001

2  A.000002.001.001

3   A.000002.001.001.01

3   A.000002.001.001.02

3   A.000002.001.001.03

2  A.000002.001.002

2  A.000002.001.003

2  A.000002.001.999

and this structure runs.

Since the mask is shorter than the SD doc number there is an algorithm that must adapt the Proj Def id.  What is the SD doc number that is failing?  You are apparently hitting a situation the program can't handle.

Hello

the actuell SD contract is:

44387

The strange is that the sales order ABC with the mask A.XXXXXX.XXX.XXX.XX.XX and the PSP-Element A.999912.001 is working but the second Standard PSP-Element A.999914.001 with the mask A.XXXXXX.XXX.XXX.XX.XX and the sales order isn't working.

[kenmelching]

I would grab an ABAPer and run it in debug to find the naming algorithm.

You are hitting a strange conflict.

It's trying to use the SD doc number in the proj def.
