Cannot create rotating assets

Technical Blog Post


Abstract

Cannot create rotating assets

Body

Today you decided that would create several assets with associated rotating items!

But it seems that "something" is conspiring against you! Opa

When you try to associate an asset to a rotating item that has a classification, you get the following error message:

BMXAA4187E - The relationship ASSETSPEC does not exist for business object ITEMSPEC.Verify that the relationship specified in the parameter ASSETSPEC exists in the Maxrelationship table

Then you look at the message and think:
"You again! This message that is often generic and does not really represent the problem" Zangado

Don't worry.... please read the procedure bellow: Piscar
