Reproducing the Issue
-
Go to Homework center

You will get error.
Cause
Product category and Unit of measure comes from external catalog,
since it does not exist in ByDesign, hence the error is thrown.
or
Product ID or product description in catalog is not mapped with what is there in ByDesign
Resolution
There is a BADI where we allow mapping of external catalog details like Product id ,Product description, Product category and Unit of measure with ByDeisgn details like Product id , product category and Unit of measure.
So you have to contact your Partner to implement this BADI using PDI studio.
Please pass on the below details to your Partners so that they can take further action to solve this issue.
BADI is meant for such cases, to map values from external catalog to their corresponding values in ByDesign system.
