Automatic Assortment Correction

Use

Changes in the master data for an assortment (for example, when an assortment grade is changed or a merchandise category is added or deleted) mean that the relevant article listing also has to be corrected. This generally takes place automatically when the change is made.

Integration

Automatic assortment correction (via a background job running cyclically) is triggered by the following changes to master data:

Changes to the supplying sites assigned to an assortment via its assortment users

Changes to the source of supply key for an article

Changes to the assortment/merchandise category master

Changes to assortment classification data

Changes to the layout of the assortment or of the articles in the assortment users assigned to the assortment

Automatic assortment correction takes place when the relevant background job is run:

Subsequent listing of merchandise category/articles (Report RWSORT17)

Automatic relisting via master data change documents (Report RWSORT07)

Automatic assortment correction is not currently triggered by changes to listing data in the article master. If, for example, you change the assortment grade of an article and do not list the article manually in article maintenance afterwards, the article assortments will not be adjusted.

If no suitable copy references can be found when article master data is being generated automatically (because there is not enough data maintained for the merchandise category reference article, for example), you can display the incomplete data via Edit error log ® missing art. segm, add more reference data, and then start a second attempt to generate the master data automatically.
