Strange messages from SAP GTS when creating purchase orders (POs)

328 Views

Hello gurus,

we use SAP GTS to check against sanctioned party lists (SPLs) only. We already transferred all our master data to GTS and our partners were checked okay. Now we just activated the document check in our test system. The system produces two different messages we do not quite understand:

1. When creating a purchase order with an item without material master, the system gives the message:

Legal Control: Custs Prod. Mast. Required

Material

Obviously GTS tries to find a matching material master, which naturally fails. My question is: Can I disable this check somewhere? In our case it is not important what the material is, we just want to check if our vendor is on some SPL.

2. In some POs there is the message

Legal Control: Partn. Function Mapping not Maintained

Partner Function: DA

I think I understand what the system is trying to say, but fact is, only one partner function is used in that order (VN). We do not even have a partner function u201CDAu201D in our ERPu2026

At least in the first case, the PO is not checked against the SPL by SAP GTS, which means we would not detect if we ordered from someone on the SPL. This is not acceptable.

Any ideas on any of those messages?

Thanks

Alicia
