  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CH309 - Screen "& &" not found ?

    The SAP error message CH309, which states "Screen '& &' not found," typically occurs when the system is unable to locate a specific screen or transaction code that is being called. This can happen for several reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:

    Causes:

    1. Missing Screen Definition: The screen you are trying to access may not be defined in the system. This can happen if the screen was deleted or if the program that calls the screen is not correctly configured.

    2. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the screen or transaction.

    3. Incorrect Transaction Code: The transaction code being used may be incorrect or may not exist in the system.

    4. Transport Issues: If the screen was recently transported from another system (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process.

    5. Program Errors: There may be errors in the ABAP program that is trying to call the screen, such as incorrect screen numbers or logic errors.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Screen Definition: Verify that the screen exists in the system. You can do this by checking the screen number in the ABAP Workbench (transaction SE80 or SE38) to see if it is defined.

    2. Verify Transaction Code: Ensure that the transaction code you are using is correct and that it corresponds to a valid program and screen.

    3. Check Authorizations: Make sure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the transaction or screen. You can check this using transaction SU53 to see if there are any authorization failures.

    4. Review Transport Logs: If the screen was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or issues that may have occurred during the transport.

    5. Debugging: If you have access to the ABAP code, you can debug the program to see where the error is occurring. Look for the code that calls the screen and verify that it is correct.

    6. Consult Documentation: If the screen is part of a standard SAP module, consult the SAP documentation or support notes for any known issues or updates related to that screen.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE80 (Object Navigator), SE38 (ABAP Editor), and SU53 (Authorization Check).
    • SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any notes related to the specific error message or the transaction you are working with.
    • Community Forums: Consider searching or posting in SAP community forums for additional insights from other users who may have encountered the same issue.

    If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis or ABAP development team for further investigation.
