Error: only basic charecterstics are allowed as transformation targets

[Former Member]

Hi All,

iam working on the SRM and BI, when iam trying to load the master data for the SRM info object 0BBP_BIDDER it was throughing the error "ONLY BASIC CHARECTERSTICS ARE ALLOWED AS TRANSFORMATION TARGETS".

I have activated the transformation from the standard content, there the transformation are active but those are not coming for the info object, so i have tried to create the transformation for this info object then it was showing this error.

Thanks in advance,

Hi K Prabhakar,

You cannot load master data to 0BBP_BIDDER. It's an infoobject created with reference to 0BPARTNER. This means that the master data is in 0BPARTNER, and you just reference this infoobject (data and properties) when you use 0BBP_BIDDER.

You need to load master data into 0BPARTNER.

Hope this helps.

Hi Diego,

Thanks for the inputs, those are very helpful.

Some other objects are also related to this for which i have to load the data like "0BBP_PARTNER_FLAG_CONTACT", "0BBP_PARTNER_FLAG_LOCATION" and "0BBP_PARTNER_FLAG_VENDOR" for those also i have to follow the same approach. when i checked this process of mapping it involves the Transfer rules and Update rules to this 0BPARTNER object, for a master data object will we have update rule.

can u please give me more details about.

Thanks & Regards

hi,

goto change mode of the object 0BBP_PARTNER, master data tab -> you can find the master data table for that object which will have /BIO/M0BPARTNER, since it is the refernece object and will have the same attributes as ur object 0BBP_PARTNER.

hecne try to load the master data for 0Bpartner object alone.

Hi Ramesh,

i have checked in the SRM master, but i couldn't able to find the object 0BBP_PARTNER. All these abjects are related to 0BPARTNER, because when i checked the standard transformations and the update rules those are all related to 0BPARTNER but not to 0BBP_PARTNER.

can u please suggest the approach to resolve this issue.

Hi Prabhakar,

What are you trying to do? I don't understand your problem.

If you want master data for 0BBP_PARTNER, then you need to load master data in 0BPARTNER. 0BBP_PARTNER is a characteristic with reference to 0BPARTNER, that means that the master data and the definition of the characteristic are in 0BPARTNER. You don't need (and you can't) create transformations and load master data to 0BBP_PARTNER.

To clarify this, think about 0BPARTNER as a table and 0BBP_PARTNER as a basic view. The table contains the data, you load data to the table and the definition of the fields is made in the table. You use the view to see the data, but the view is only a logical definition.

Hope this helps.
