How To Fix 5W625 - System cannot find create object & &, so dependent obj. is not activated


SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: 5W - Messages for PD (Particularly Workflow)

  • Message number: 625

  • Message text: System cannot find create object & &, so dependent obj. is not activated

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    The object to be activated has an "existence dependency" on the
    specified object. This means that it cannot exist independently of the
    "parent object" or "create object".
    The activation program cannot find the parent object in the target
    client for the transport, or in the transport itself. For this reason,
    it cancels activation for this object.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Make sure that the parent object exists in the target client before you
    import the dependent object, or that the parent object and dependent
    object are both transported with the same transport request.

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5W625 - System cannot find create object & &, so dependent obj. is not activated ?

    The SAP error message 5W625 indicates that the system is unable to find a specific object that is required for the activation of a dependent object. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Workflow or when dealing with Business Object Repository (BOR) objects.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Object: The primary cause of this error is that the system cannot locate the object that is supposed to be created or activated. This could be due to:

      • The object not being created or defined in the system.
      • The object being deleted or not transported correctly from the development environment to the production environment.
      • Incorrect configuration or naming issues.
    2. Transport Issues: If the object was recently transported, there may have been issues during the transport process that resulted in the object not being available in the target system.

    3. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or create the object.

    Solution:

    1. Check Object Existence: Verify if the object mentioned in the error message exists in the system. You can do this by:

      • Using transaction codes like SWO1 (Business Object Builder) to check if the object is defined.
      • Checking the relevant tables or using transaction SE11 to see if the object is present.
    2. Recreate or Transport the Object: If the object is missing:

      • If you have access to the development environment, recreate the object.
      • If it was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs for errors and re-transport the object if necessary.
    3. Check Dependencies: Ensure that all dependent objects are also available and activated. Sometimes, the issue may arise from a missing or inactive dependent object.

    4. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to create or activate the object. You can check this in transaction SU53 after attempting the action that led to the error.

    5. Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the workflow or the program that is trying to create the object. This can provide insights into what is going wrong.
