  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CBGLWB101 - Specify a valid OK code ?

    The SAP error message CBGLWB101: "Specify a valid OK code" typically occurs in the context of SAP GUI transactions when the system expects a valid OK code to be entered, but the input provided is either missing or incorrect. This error can arise in various scenarios, such as when trying to execute a transaction, save data, or navigate through screens.

    Causes:

    1. Missing OK Code: The user did not enter an OK code in the command field or the OK code was not recognized by the system.
    2. Incorrect Input: The OK code entered is not valid for the current context or transaction.
    3. Screen Navigation Issues: The user may have attempted to navigate using a function that requires a valid OK code but did not provide one.
    4. Custom Development: If there are custom screens or transactions, the OK code handling might not be implemented correctly.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Input: Ensure that you are entering a valid OK code. Common OK codes include:

      • /n to start a new session
      • /o to open a new session
      • /i to log off
      • Specific transaction codes (e.g., VA01 for creating a sales order)
    2. Use Function Keys: Instead of manually entering an OK code, try using the function keys (like F3 for back, F12 for cancel) to navigate through the screens.

    3. Review Transaction: If you are in a specific transaction, ensure that you are following the correct steps and that the transaction is not in a state that requires a specific OK code.

    4. Check Custom Code: If you are working with a custom transaction or screen, consult with your ABAP developer to ensure that the OK code handling is implemented correctly.

    5. Restart the Session: Sometimes, simply logging out and logging back in can resolve temporary issues.

    6. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction you are working with to understand the expected OK codes.

    Related Information:

    • SAP GUI: The OK code is a command that the SAP GUI uses to determine what action to take based on user input.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with common transaction codes and their associated OK codes to avoid this error in the future.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific transaction or version of SAP you are using.
