Hi Raghvendra,

Check whether you have fulfilled following per-requisites:

1. Created the Set types for the vehicle in SAP COMM product Hierarchy.

Cross-Application components -> SAP product -> Product without customizing transfer from backend systems

Select "Maintain Categories/Hierarchies"

2. verify whether you have followed the below steps:

Cross-Application components -> SAP product -> Product Category -> Assign Category Hierarchies to Applications

Select "Assign Hierachhies to Applications":

for application 03 Product you have to assign hierarchy ID "DBM_VHCLE"

Select "Assigmt per Product Type for Application Product:

for product type 01 Material you have to assigne hierarchy ID "DBM-VHCLE"

3. Maintain the configuration-   /DBM/SPRO--->Vehicle-->Vehicle Model master--> category determination for vehicle-->Define Table of Criteria--> /DBM/V_MC_CTRL--> Click on Details.

4. Lastly If any of the above still doesnt solve the problem, then I will ask you to check whether the Client copy of the VMS configuration is present in the client where the error is occuring. The action control DBM1 & DBM2 needs to exist.

Also let me know what is the SP level of DBM 8.0 version you are working on.. & what is the MRSS Version & SP level.

Whether you have activated any BC sets?
