• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APB_FPM_GUIBB052 - Operator 'IS_NOT_EMPTY' requires RTTI of search criterion ?

  The SAP error message APB_FPM_GUIBB052 indicates that there is an issue with the use of the operator IS_NOT_EMPTY in a search criterion within a Floorplan Manager (FPM) application. This error typically arises when the runtime type information (RTTI) for the search criterion is not available or not properly defined.
  Cause:
  
  Missing RTTI: The search criterion is expected to have RTTI, which provides metadata about the data type and structure. If this information is missing, the system cannot evaluate the IS_NOT_EMPTY operator.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the FPM application might be incorrect, leading to the absence of necessary metadata.
  Data Model Issues: There may be issues with the underlying data model or the way the data is being fetched or defined in the application.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the FPM application, particularly the search criteria. Ensure that all necessary fields are correctly defined and that their data types are properly set.
  Define RTTI: If the RTTI is missing, you may need to define it for the search criterion. This can involve adjusting the data model or the way the search criteria are set up in the application.
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to trace the execution of the application and identify where the RTTI is not being set or is failing to load.
  Update Components: Ensure that all relevant components of the SAP system are up to date. Sometimes, bugs in earlier versions can lead to such issues.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to FPM and the specific components you are using. There may be known issues or additional configuration steps required.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to the error message or the components you are using. SAP Notes often provide fixes or workarounds for known issues.
