Inconsistent Compounding

[Former Member]

Hi,

i get this following error while trying to instal a std object,

Inconsistent compounding with characteristic 0MAINTPLANT and referenced char. 0PLANT

Message no. R7405

Diagnosis

Characteristic 0MAINTPLANT references characteristic 0PLANT. Thererfore, the compounding of characteristic 0MAINTPLANT must be consistent with the compounding of characteristic 0PLANT. This means:

The number of characteristics that are compounded to the characteristics above must agree.

If characteristic 0PLANT is compounded to a characteristic 'A' in the n'th position, then characteristic 0MAINTPLANT must also be compounded to characteristic 'A' or to characteristic 'B', that references characteristic 'A' in the n'th position. (Example: 'Cost center' is compounded to 'Controlling area'. 'Sending cost center' refers to 'Cost center' and 'Sending controlling area' refers to 'Controlling area'. Then 'Sending cost center' must be compounded to 'Controlling area' or 'Sending controlling area'.

System response

Characteristic 0MAINTPLANT cannot be activated.

Procedure

Change the compounding of characteristic 0MAINTPLANT so that it corresponds to the conditions described above.

Hi Vijayanti,

Check 0PLANT in RSD1 and pull up the where used list. It should give you information for compounding under the InfoObjects (like Is compounded to : XXX [IOBJ]). Based on the error message you need to ensure that 0MAINTPLANT is also compounded to the InfoObjects to which 0PLANT is also compounded.

Hope this helps...

hey bhanu ,

can you plz be more clear where and how do i check the where used list.

0plant has "0soursystem" in compounding tab, and 0plant is active

0maintplant is not active and it doesnt have anything under compunding tab now since its not active it doesnt let me edit this object.

thankyou

Hi Vijayanti,

You need to check what objects 0PLANT is compounded to, not what is compounded to 0PLANT (like 0soursystem). In the RSD1 screen type in 0PLANT and then just above that is a button for Where-Used (next to the Transport truck button).

Hope this helps...

Hello Vijanyanti,

Since 0MAINTPLANT is referenceing 0PLANT, it must be compounded to 0SOURCESYSTEM like 0PLANT.

Check for all places where 0MAINTPLANT is being used, remove it, edit 0MAINTPLANT and add 0SOURCESYSTEM as compounding infoobject.

Re-add 0MAINTPLANT.

I don't think that it is a problem in what 0PLANT is compounding but what it is compounded to.

Cheers
