Resolve the Warning About the Default Product Catalog

This topic helps you resolve the warning about the missing default Product catalog after collections for Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Planning.

The logged warning might be as follows: "WARNING: There is no default catalog available. Therefore, there will not be a Default Product Hierarchy. Make necessary corrections at the source and relaunch Collections Scheduled Process to include a new default product hierarchy."

The warning is logged after collections if you haven't set up the default Product catalog in the prescribed manner in Oracle Fusion Cloud Product Lifecycle Management or using the file-based data import (FBDI) template named Supply Chain Planning Catalogs (ScpCatalogImportTemplate.xlsm). The default Product catalog is populated into the default Product hierarchy of the Product dimension in Oracle Supply Chain Planning. If you haven't set up the default Product catalog, the predefined Planning hierarchy that contains only one predefined item is used. Your items won't be available in the Product hierarchy and will be available through the other hierarchies that are created for collected catalogs.

For information about how you must set up the default Product catalog, see the topic titled Guidelines for Setting Up Catalogs for Collections.

Follow these steps to resolve the warning:

  1. In the Product Information Management work area or using the Supply Chain Planning Catalogs import template, create the default Product catalog.
  2. Using the Collect Planning Data page or Load Planning Data from Flat Files scheduled process, collect your catalogs again.
    You can use the net change collection type.
