Activate sites - In preparation, generate item data
Generating item data by site is a mandatory step in the site activation process.
The site related item data are generated using the Generate Master Data (tccom0231m000) session. This session is only available if the site activation status is In Preparation.
To generate item data by site, you must perform steps 1 and 2 in the following procedure before generating any of the other item master data. This is because the data generated in these steps must be present before the other item data can be generated.
After completing steps 1 and 2, you are recommended to complete the following steps one by one, in the indicated order instead of selecting multiple options and generating master data for these options in one go. This is to achieve the best results and to avoid overburdening the system.
In each step performed in the Generate Master Data (tccom0231m000) session, it is recommended to select the Simulation, Process Report, and Error Report check boxes and correct any errors before actually generating master data. You can repeat the simulation and correct errors as often as required.
